Summary

Worthington High School is a public charter high school located in West Palm Beach, Florida, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 349 students. The school is part of the Palm Beach School District, which is ranked 38 out of 67 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Worthington High School consistently performs significantly below the district and state averages in standardized test scores across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 2% of Worthington students were proficient or better in Algebra 1, compared to 62% in the Palm Beach district and 60% statewide. The school has also had relatively low four-year graduation rates, ranging from 34.1% to 92.1% over the past few years, compared to the district and state averages, which are typically around 90%. Additionally, Worthington High School has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 23.4% to 87.7% in recent years, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

When comparing Worthington High School to nearby schools within the same district, it becomes evident that Worthington is significantly underperforming academically. For instance, schools like Palm Beach Lakes High School, Forest Hill Community High School, and G-Star School of the Arts all have significantly higher test scores, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism rates than Worthington. The variability in Worthington's funding and staffing levels may contribute to the school's challenges in providing a consistent and high-quality educational experience for its students.
