Summary

Hidden Oaks K-8 in Lake Worth, FL, is a public school serving 835 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade within the Palm Beach School District, and it has transformed into a high-performing institution now ranking in the 71st percentile statewide with a 4-star rating.

The school's standout strength is its exceptional middle school math program. In the 2025-2026 school year, 94% of 6th graders and 92% of 8th graders were proficient in math, far exceeding district and state averages. Even more impressive, 100% of students taking Algebra 1 and Geometry End-of-Course exams were proficient. This level of achievement is unmatched by nearby K-8 schools like Imagine Schools Chancellor Campus and Renaissance Charter School at Central Palm, which saw 6th-grade math proficiency rates as low as 26% and 45%, respectively. Hidden Oaks also excels in 8th-grade science, with 76% of students proficient compared to 55% for the district and 52% for the state. The school shows a clear "value-add" as students progress, with math proficiency jumping from 53% in 4th grade to 94% by 6th grade, though early elementary math remains an area for growth.

Hidden Oaks has maintained a chronic absenteeism rate of just 17.9%, well below the district and state averages, which is a significant achievement given that 45.75% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school's turnaround story is remarkable—it moved from the 38th percentile in 2019 to consistently ranking in the top 30% of Florida schools since 2022. This success is highlighted by a stark contrast with Franklin Academy - Boynton Beach, located just 0.28 miles away on the same street, which is a 1-star school in the 28th percentile despite serving a similar student population. Hidden Oaks outperforms Franklin Academy in nearly every subject and grade level, often by 20-30 percentage points, demonstrating the powerful impact of school culture and instructional quality.
