Welcome! Southern Dreams and Orion High School of Texas have been educational partners and friends for over 10 years. The basic goal of our partnership over that time has been to provide opportunities for Mississippi students. Through our partnership, Mississippi students have graduated from Orion High School and have become productive and successful in their chosen paths. No partnership is ever successful without the people whose lives are guided by Him, who guides us to help young and old. Dr. Joseph Gallegos founded Orion High School in 2007 and opened his digital school in 2008, with the help of other dedicated and committed teachers. The school has proudly graduated over 4000 students during that time. Those have represented small towns, large cities, states, and countries from around the World. Melvin Anderson founded Southern Dreams, a non-profit program, which has many components that are geared to support and help the community in every way, some of their programs are: Learn to Earn Career Graduation
Program, Youth Behavior Program, Prep for Success Development Program, Teen Pregnancy Program, Leadership Program,  Community Youth Outreach Program, and Youth Justice Program.
