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.^[2][3]

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.

The Palmview Lobos share their field with La Joya Coyotes and Juarez-Lincoln Huskies at La Joya Stadium, a 12,500-seating capacity stadium which opened in 2000. The lobos made it to playoffs in 2014 for the first time and also became bi-district champs.

The Lady Lobos are coached by Anisa Reyna and assisted by Jose Reyna, along with many other staff members who are allocated positions on the Lady Lobos Basketball staff. The Lady Lobos made the playoffs for the first time in school history in 2015.
