Welcome El Paso High School Students and Parents! My Name is Dan Favela. I am a Mighty Tiger alumni and a University of Texas at El Paso Graduate. This year I will be teaching Advanced Placement U.S. History and U.S. History and AP European History.
I truly believe that El Paso High School is the best high school in the city. It is rich with history, tradition and world-class students. It has been a great honor to work at El Paso High.
History is a big passion of mine, and hopefully you will feel the same way after you have taken my course.
My favorite historical subjects are: The Sumerians, Greeks, Romans, the Medieval Ages, the Renaissance, and World War I.
My favorite historical figures are Alexander the Great, Hannibal, Julius and Augustus Caesar, Belisarius, Charles Martel, Louis XVI, Isaac Newton, Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, U.S. Grant, John J. Pershing, Alvin York, and Harry Truman.
