Summary

Wellington Landings Middle in Wellington, FL, is a high-performing public school serving 1,227 students in grades 6-8 within the Palm Beach district, consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 81st percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional science and math programs. In 8th grade science, Wellington Landings achieves a 75% proficiency rate—20 points higher than the district average and 23 points higher than the state average, surpassing nearby schools like Emerald Cove Middle (67%) and Somerset Academy Canyons Middle School (22%). Even more impressive, the school hits 100% proficiency in both Algebra 1 and Geometry End-of-Course exams, a feat unmatched by peers such as Polo Park Middle School (94% and 99%) and Western Pines Community Middle (98% and 97%). Additionally, chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at 11.1%, less than half the district average (23.4%) and far below schools like Okeeheelee Middle School (33.2%).

While Wellington Landings excels overall, it shares a common challenge with all area schools: a sharp drop in 7th grade math proficiency, with only 44% of students proficient compared to 70% in 6th grade and 78% in 8th grade. This suggests a curriculum-wide issue rather than a school-specific problem. Notably, the school achieves strong results with moderate spending ($12,140 per student), outperforming lower-ranked schools that spend more, such as Crestwood Community Middle ($15,869) and Jeaga Middle School ($14,760). For parents, Wellington Landings offers a stable, high-achieving environment with standout STEM programs and a healthy, engaged student body.

Wellington Landings Middle School overall is just an average school unless you're taking gifted/honors classes. From personal experience, I have noticed that kids who take gifted classes have a lot better attitude and have better judgement. This school educationally wise is great! If you want your child to do well and go to a good high school for example Suncoast I would suggest sending your child here. I have been here for years and matured into a well rounded young adult. However, I have seen a handful amount of students yearly getting bullied and teased. The school does a terrible job at keeping Landings a "bully-free campus" I believe that they should fix this problem. This school is also awfully strict and treats their students as if we are 8 years old even though majority of us are teenagers. In the cafeteria, the administrators watch over us like hawks. We have to sit at assigned tables. I find this extremely unfair because lunch is our only "break" from school. School is approximately 7 hours and lunch is only 30 minutes, I don't quite understand why students can't sit where they want. Another thing about this school is the bathroom policy, also known as the 15/15 rule. You cannot use the restroom 15 minutes during class and 15 minutes before the bell rings. As a young woman, I find that extremely unfair. Girls and boys should use the restroom whenever it is needed. The bathrooms are also extremely dirty and always smells terrible. This middle school is dead broke. Landings isn't very welcoming at all. The front office woman Mrs. Skinner always complains about her job when parents around. She always whines about how she has a lot to do. Not to mention the fact that teachers complain to us students about how low their job salary which not to mention is completely unprofessional. To conclude, don't send your child to WLMS unless they're flexible, independent and in advanced classes. Close Quote
