Mission & Values
Mission
The Excel Center Adult High School transforms lives in a supportive and holistic learning environment where all students are empowered to achieve.
OUR HISTORY
We know that the single greatest solution to moving people out of poverty is education. And the most effective way to pull kindergarten through Grade 12 children out of poverty and into academic success is to empower their parents with the tools to be financially stable. In 2013, the Legislature and the Texas Education Agency (TEA) authorized our proposal for an adult high school model. The Excel Center for Adults focuses on providing educational opportunities to 18-50 year-olds who dropped out of high school and are typically under or unemployed.
