Canutillo High School is a public high school in Canutillo, Texas on 6675 South Desert Boulevard. It is part of the Canutillo Independent School District. This is the second campus that has been Canutillo High School. The original high school was built in the early 1960s. In the early first decade of the 21st century overcrowding was an issue at the aging facility. In 2003 a bond was passed to build the new High school along Interstate 10 next to the campus of the El Paso Community College. In 2006 the new high school opened its doors to the Borderland community.
