Read MoreWe love our students, and we do everything possible to give our students an education that will launch them into their desired future. Through student support services and individualized attention, including mentorship, tutoring, guidance counseling, and many after-school clubs and programs, such as sports, National Honor Society, choir, coding, dance ensembles, and more, your student will flourish in an environment that pushes them to be all that they can be.
In the year 2000, our doors first opened in a converted warehouse space. Now we have expanded to our own campus with High School and Middle School buildings and a separate Elementary School campus. We have grown to over 1,600 students and have plans to keep expanding. We are grateful to have you consider Esperanza for your child’s future.
