College Signing Day at IDEA Public Schools is an annual celebration where graduating seniors reveal the college or university they will attend after high school. These regional events bring together families, educators, and community members to recognize the accomplishments of IDEA scholars and highlight the success of our college-preparatory model. From the Rio Grande Valley to Austin, San Antonio, and beyond, College Signing Day is a powerful reminder of IDEA’s mission to help every student get to and through college.
Below you will find event details for each region’s College Signing Day celebration, including livestream links, event highlights, and ways to follow along as IDEA seniors share where they are headed next. Join us in honoring the Class of 2026.
