Best Public Schools in Zip Code 33435


Summary:

The 33435 zip code area of Boynton Beach, Florida is home to 4 elementary schools, including Rolling Green Elementary School, Galaxy Elementary School, Forest Park Elementary School, and Poinciana STEM Elementary Magnet School. While the schools serve economically disadvantaged populations, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, there is a stark performance gap between the schools.

Poinciana STEM Elementary Magnet School stands out as the top performer, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and consistently higher standardized test scores than the other schools in the area. In the 2023-2024 school year, 68% of 3rd graders at Poinciana STEM were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the Palm Beach district and state averages of 54% and 55%, respectively. The school also had strong math performance, with 54% of 3rd graders and 100% of 6th graders proficient or better.

In contrast, the other three schools in the data set appear to be struggling, with lower test scores, higher chronic absenteeism rates, and lower statewide rankings. Rolling Green Elementary, Galaxy Elementary, and Forest Park Elementary all have 0 or 1-star ratings from SchoolDigger and rank in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools. The high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 10% at Poinciana STEM to over 34% at Galaxy Elementary, may be a significant factor in the schools' lower academic performance.
