Da Vinci recognized by U.S. News & World Report

Congratulations to Da Vinci School for Science & the Arts, Superintendent Dr. Joe E. Gonzales, former principal Mr. Gallardo, and all the teachers, students, and staff who made this achievement possible!

Da Vinci has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of the best high schools in the El Paso metro area. This recognition is especially meaningful because Da Vinci proudly serves one of the highest numbers of emergent bilingual students in the region, while also ranking among the top schools in college readiness.

We are deeply grateful to Dr. G for his visionary leadership and dedication, which have been instrumental in achieving this recognition.
