The Community

One of the best things about living in Franklin Hills is all there is to do when you’re not at home. Walk out your front door and take advantage of magnificent hiking and biking trails that most people would travel far to enjoy. Gather and play in a family-friendly neighborhood park, or walk down the street to the Resler Trail. Go a few minutes farther and enjoy the startling beauty of the Franklin Mountains State Park.

Schools

EPISD is an open enrollment school district that welcomes students tuition-free throughout El Paso county. Students who live inside the district's boundary zones may choose to attend the EPISD school that best suits their academic needs. Out-of-district and intra-district transfers must be approved by the accepting campus principal.

District Innovation
EPISD is the first district in El Paso county officially designated as a Texas District of Innovation. The designation gives EPISD the same flexibilities as charter schools in crafting curricula, school programming and calendars.
