Palm Beach Public School consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels.

While Palm Beach Public School has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism over the past few years, reaching 31.4% in 2023-2024, it still performs better than the district average of 31.4% for the same year. The school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 35.46% in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of 76.61%, suggests a more socioeconomically diverse student population. Additionally, the higher spending per student at $17,286 in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of $16,166, and the lower student-teacher ratio of 14.4 in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of 13.5, indicate that the school may have access to more resources and a more favorable learning environment.
