The school just got the TEA's A Rating again they beat out Lundy and the afterschool programs are affordable and fun! I'm part of the PTA and volunteer a lot.

It was very impactful on my education and I would 10/10 recommend. The teachers are wonderful. The general organization of the school is top tier. It also has fun events such as Book Fair and Movie Night(Rated G). There is also Bike Day and Field Day. Youcan even take Orchestra in 5th Grade! It's Physical Education is run excellently. In the 4th(Optional) and 5th(Standard), Tippin gets you ready for middle school by having students be taught by 2 teachers. One for ELA and one for Science and Math. The school is clean and the bathrooms are also very clean. This campus is a great place to receive your primary Pre-K through 5th Grade Education. I'm almost in high school now, but Tippin had made me a successful student. It is an A ranked school and is top ranked out of ALL elementary school in El Paso. It is a diverse school and many military kids go there.

This 23 million dollar school is in its 3rd year of operation. The facility is nice but the grounds…read morekeeping has room for improvement. The front desk staff gives the school a good image. There is a new principal in her first year at the school. She has a different approach from the prior administration. I admire both and we will see what is the better leadership style. The academics are taught and some teachers go above and beyond. Some teachers profess to care about the students but actions seem to be often mismatched. Sometimes programs get discontinued and no explanation is given-- such as no science fair this year, not a continued emphasis and competition among grade level for the best rate of attendance, the afterschool groups don't seem to be emphasized as much as they were the last two years, although the school has a school uniform, the staff and teachers need a uniform as evidenced by the attire of some of the staff. I have seen faculty with sneakers untied. The parents are not too involved as shown by no PTA. The faculty has a nice, paved parking lot but many choose to park parallel on side streets obscuring vision. The dismissal procedure is utter chaos and quite dangerous with no observed security measures and there is no crosswalk guards. Tutoring is available and snacks are provided for students who attend the tutoring sessions. Parent conferences have to be short like 5 minutes due to the large ratio of students per certified teacher. When the school got a waiver for classroom size, I doubt if parents were notified as TEA recommends. I look pretty closely at my child's backpack and I did not see a letter giving information of the classroom students exceeding 22. There is a choir teacher and an orchestra teacher this current year and both seem invested in their programs. The art teacher is stellar. There are often delayed announcements such as when photos will be taken. Each week there seems to be a least one day that students don't have to wear the school uniform. The parent engagement liaison is exceptional and is good to pass on information. This school is having its growing pains and the school's overall report card grade for 22-23 was dismal. Educators can do a good job and results can remain undesirable if there is not the parental reinforcement and I believe that Coach Archie Duran does not have a good handhold with the parents.
Spring has spring!

She had Mrs.lena for pre K and Mrs. Vasquzettes for K-4. Mrs. Lena is well respected there and runs a brilliant classroom that is well disciplined. She is extremely knowledgable and she is experienced from another christian school in El Paso. If I could give the faculty a rating it would be 5 stars. Now, The front office are not so much helpful, everyone had a different opinion about how things should be run. My friend actually enrolled her son the same time I enrolled my daughter and she got charged more (same grade level). I also relocated and I asked the front desk twice if I need to make a payment and the answer was "NO". Then the second time I spoke to someone they told me I would receive a partial refund. When I called to ask about said refund, they told me I owe them money. It's a shame that I have to write a review that is not perfect because of the way the church does business. I will continue to pray for the church, but unfortunately I cannot recommend this establishment.

Excellent!!! Tutoring U is amazing! My daughter had issues at school because of a bad (bully and…read morelazy) teacher. It got so bad I, and a couple other parents, removed our children from the class and put them in another school. The new school informed me that she was severely behind the rest of the class. She finished out the year at the new school, but because of the stress from her previous teacher her confidence was gone and her attitude changed drastically. I spoke with Michelle and her husband at Tutoring U, and they explained how they work with the students. I walked out of that meeting and could not wait to get my daughter started! Later that week I took my daughter in so she could be tested so they could see what her strengths and weaknesses were. They immediately gave me the results of her tests - no waiting - and they set her up on a tutoring plan. Immediately I started to see changes in my daughter! Her confidence was returning, she was happy and her stress was gone. Most important she was learning - A LOT! She was caught up on all the previous year's lessons and she was ready to start the new year. Currently, we are a few weeks into the new school year and her teacher has commented how advance she is math and reading and that she knows how to properly study. We previously tried the other national chain tutoring centers; they were very expensive, did not have one on one teaching (it was more like 4 to 1) and all they seemed to care about was having you sign a lengthy contract. I love that the tutoring is one-on-one. The curriculum focuses on the student's weaknesses, but will also review their strengths. I was always told what my daughter would be working on and how she did on the lesson. I was so happy with the progress my daughter made that half way through the summer I enrolled my younger daughter so she could get a start on the new school year. I will continue to use Tutoring U and I highly recommend their services. Thank you so much for helping my daughters!!
