DEL VALLE OPPORTUNITY CTR

DEL VALLE OPPORTUNITY CTR is a Title I public high school that is part of the DEL VALLE ISD school district, located in DEL VALLE, TX with about 206 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 37 teachers, DEL VALLE OPPORTUNITY CTR has a student/teacher ratio of about 5:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

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.
