ABOUT COLEGIO SUSANA WESLEYSusannah
Wesley School, or "Colegio Susana Wesley" in Spanish, is a mission
school envisioned, built, and supported through the service of Pastor
Antonio Briones and his family and the support of faithful and loving
partners in mission across the border.
The school supplies a Christian
education to children from 1st through 6th grade. It is officially
incorporated to the SEP (Office of Public Education), and is
acknowledged as a private school following the standard national
curriculum.
The children of Susana Wesley receive ESL classes, as well
as art,
music, and Bible lessons (learning a Bible verse every week). We hold a
short morning service on Fridays.The school is set in Anapra, an
impoverished neighborhood of Juarez, Mexico, and it runs on a limited
budget, but its excellency in education and service have been noted in
Mexico and abroad. In 2009, the children of Susana Wesley tested so
highly on the nation-wide standardized testing that the school was
awarded a city-wide 9th place (among hundreds of schools) in academic
excellency and was placed in the top 2% of Chihuahua state's (a state
larger than Texas) elementary schools.
