Anthony High School

What Anthony High School does

Anthony High School is the secondary campus of Anthony Independent School District, a public K-12 school district serving approximately 700 students across three campuses (elementary, middle, and high school) in Anthony, Texas, a small rural community in El Paso County near Fort Bliss. The district was founded in 1965 and operates under Texas public school governance, with funding derived from the state's Foundation School Program, local property taxes, and federal categorical grants. Anthony High School itself enrolls roughly 200-250 students in grades 9-12, with graduating classes typically in the 50-58 student range, and serves a community that includes military-connected families from the adjacent Fort Bliss installation.

The school's academic program includes a standard Texas high school curriculum augmented by Career and Technical Education pathways delivered in partnership with El Paso ISD's CCTE program, a Fab Lab, and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso for medical exposure. Recent programmatic additions include OSHA certification, drone technology, esports, and speech and debate. Student-support infrastructure includes a partnership with Emergence Health Network for mental-health services, supported in part by a $1 million Stronger Connections Grant awarded in 2024. Technology infrastructure is built on Google Workspace for Education with two-step verification, and campus security was upgraded in 2025 with a $162,960 surveillance system procurement.

The district operates as a public-government entity rather than a revenue-generating enterprise, and its "business model" is funded primarily through per-pupil state allocations under the Foundation School Program, supplemented by local M&O and I&S property tax levies, federal Title and IDEA funds, and competitive grants. Accountability performance is mixed: the district overall received a TEA 'B' (80/100) in the most recent cycle, the elementary and middle schools earned 'B' and 'A' respectively, and the high school earned a 'C' (77/100). The district holds three consecutive 'A' FIRST ratings for financial integrity from the Texas Comptroller, a Purple Star Campus designation for military families, a Postsecondary Readiness Designation, and reported Class of 2025 scholarship awards exceeding $3 million. Teacher compensation was raised to the highest in El Paso County via implementation of Texas House Bill 2.
