Sageland Elementary

Sageland MicroSociety Elementary School is the only school in the El Paso area to provide a fully integrated MicroSociety curriculum that maximizes staff, faculty, student, parental, and community participation. Setting foot on the campus reveals a warm, caring, unconventional child-centered world unlike any you have ever experienced before. As you... walk the halls, you will notice the colorful teacher-created murals that display student work and entice you into their classrooms, where a friendly, cooperative, and safe environment encourages students to be risk-takes who take responsibility for their learning by working in centers or choosing from a daily menu of activities.
