Palmview High School is a public senior high school in the La Homa census-designated place in unincorporated Hidalgo County, Texas, with a Mission postal address, and a part of the La Joya Independent School District.

Palmview is a Texas UIL Division 5A high school named after the city of Palmview. The school is home to students that live on the east side of La Joya ISD.

Palmview High serves sections of Alton, Mission, and Palmview, as well as parts of the census-designated places of Doffing, La Homa, Palmview South, Perezville, and West Sharyland.

Foundation

Due to increasing population in the area, the school district, which formerly had only one high school, had to be split into three separate high schools. The 2008–2009 school year became the inaugural year for Palmview High School, and it was classified as a 6A school. The official Palmview High School campus opened in January 2009 at 2.5 miles (4 km) north La Homa Road in Mission.
