Summary

The Learning Center is a public charter elementary and middle school located in Royal Palm Beach, Florida, serving 126 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school is part of the Palm Beach school district, which is ranked 38th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The Learning Center's performance is significantly lower than nearby schools, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 23.4% to 31.4%, compared to the district and state averages around 31.4%. The school's test scores are also much lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 6% of 3rd graders and 0% of 6th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts and Math, compared to 57% and 64% for the district, respectively.

Despite the school's high spending per student, ranging from $26,198 to $55,771 over the past few years, and its very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 6.4 to 7.2, The Learning Center's performance is still significantly lower than the nearby Binks Forest Elementary School, which is located about 3.5 miles away and has much higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and lower spending per student. The district may need to re-evaluate its policies and practices to ensure that all schools, including charter schools, are providing high-quality education to their students.
