Adult Education Learning Center Project Updates
Adult Education Learning Center
Project Summary
Harris County Department of Education broke ground in early 2022 on the new Adult Education Learning Center.
Located in north Houston’s Lindale neighborhood, the 51,000-square-foot facility designed by Cre8 Architects features two custom murals, 17 classrooms, five laboratories for allied health professions, administrative offices, a student lounge, and a multipurpose community room.
The building was designed to mirror a community college environment and features improved pedestrian access, an outdoor patio, and a two-story secure parking garage.
Adult Education will offer classes at the new building in August 2023.
