About The PossAble Dream Adult High School - Recently authorized by the Texas Education Agency (TEA), the new school serving Cameron, Hidalgo, Willacy, Starr, Jim Hogg, Webb and Zapata Counties, will address the educational and training needs of the residents of Deep South Texas who lack a high school diploma. This new public high school for adults up to age 50 will expand to serve a number of South Texas communities to achieve regional impact. In addition to receiving their high school diploma, adults who enroll will receive industry-based certifications, employability training, and the opportunity to take college coursework at no cost. The program will partner with businesses and other local entities to offer internship and apprenticeship opportunities. Upon completion of the program, job placement assistance will be provided, as well as transition support to continue with higher education studies.
