Mission Statement

  "Lydia Patterson Institute is committed to providing an environment in which Christian faith, values, and knowledge converge to give students a cross-cultural, academic, and state-of-the-art education, by creating opportunities to develop skills to succeed and transform a changing world."  

 Lydia Patterson Institute has responded to the need for a quality education within the community of the Juarez-El Paso Border Region for over 100 years. Graduation rates of students exceed 98% of those entering as freshmen and over 96% of the graduates continue their education at colleges across the US. Many whom do not speak the English language when they arrive, yet will be successful bilingual college-bound students upon graduation. 

We invite you to visit our campus and personally experience the welcoming atmosphere, observe its academic and spiritual excellence, share a meal with our students, and investigate the many opportunities in which you can be engaged and be a part of this wonderful institution.
