School Overview

The Del Valle Opportunity Center, located at 5301 Ross Road in Del Valle, Texas, operates under the Del Valle Independent School District (DVISD). As an "opportunity center," the school is primarily designed to serve as an alternative education setting. Its mission is to provide a structured, supportive environment for students who may struggle in a traditional comprehensive high school setting, helping them stay on track to earn their high school diplomas.

The center focuses on credit recovery, accelerated instruction, and smaller class sizes to meet the unique academic and social-emotional needs of its student body. By offering a more flexible approach to learning, the Del Valle Opportunity Center aims to reduce dropout rates and ensure that every student has the resources necessary to graduate and prepare for post-secondary opportunities, whether in college or the workforce.
