Summary:
The 33437 zip code area in Palm Beach, Florida is home to two schools: South Technical Academy, a high school, and Hagen Road Elementary School. While the schools have distinct academic profiles, both demonstrate strong performance in certain areas.
South Technical Academy stands out for its impressive 97.3% four-year graduation rate and exceptional performance on end-of-course (EOC) exams, particularly in Algebra 1, Geometry, Biology 1, and US History. However, the school's 9th and 10th grade FAST English Language Arts scores are slightly below the Palm Beach County and Florida state averages. In contrast, Hagen Road Elementary School excels across the board, with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students scoring significantly above the district and state on FAST English Language Arts and Math assessments, and an impressive 100% proficiency rate in 6th grade Math.
The data also reveals differences in funding and resources between the two schools. Hagen Road Elementary School spends significantly more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio compared to South Technical Academy, which may contribute to its strong academic performance. Both schools, however, face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to address this issue.
