Palm Beach County School District

Florida · runs pre-K through grade 12

NCES ID 1201500 · palmbeachschools.org · (561) 434-8000

Palm Beach County spreads across 53 ZIP Code areas — enough that no single postal code describes it. It is the only district serving 48 of them and shares the other 5. In total it covers 705,988 homes over 1,964 square miles. By homes covered it ranks 3rd of the 67 districts in Florida.

A district wide enough to cross many ZIP Codes

Palm Beach County covers 1,964 square miles, and the ZIP Code areas inside it are small by comparison. Its 705,988 homes are spread thinly enough that the postal map and the school map have little reason to agree anywhere.

The ZIP Code areas it reaches

The spread is the thing to notice. In 33411 this district holds 100% of the homes; in 33440 it holds 3.2% of the homes. Same district, opposite answers, and a lookup that names it without the share tells the second household the same thing as the first.

What an answer of one district name misses here

Palm Beach County is the largest district in 52 ZIP Code areas. Answer with its name alone and the answer misses 3,611 of the 709,357 homes those areas hold — though in 48 of them it holds every home there is. The count is homes, not addresses, and it is the number no lookup prints.

ZIP Code 33469 · Tequesta, Florida is a two-district area: 5,491 of its 8,376 homes are inside Palm Beach County, and the other 2,885 homes are with Martin County. Which one an address belongs to is settled by the street, not by the five digits.

In ZIP Code 33458 · Jupiter, Florida the split runs 22,331 to 507 and the larger part is Palm Beach County's: the rest is 507 homes with Martin County.

In ZIP Code 33401 · West Palm Beach, Florida the single-name answer is the true one: Palm Beach County holds all 18,875 homes counted there, and no other district holds a share worth naming.

ZIP Code 33403 · Lake Park, Florida is another area where one name covers everything — 5,766 homes, all of them inside Palm Beach County.

Palm Beach County is not the name anyone would give for ZIP Code 33440 · Montura, Florida — Hendry County leads it — and Palm Beach County holds 242 homes there all the same. Answer that area with one name and that is what it is wrong about.

Who takes the other homes in its ZIP Codes

Palm Beach County runs pre-K through grade 12 itself, so an address it holds sees no change of authority between grade school and high school. The districts listed below are the ones that take the other homes in the ZIP Code areas it shares — Hendry County and Martin County. They are neighbors on the same postal ground, not the next stop for its own students.

  • Hendry County School District7,345 homes in 1 shared ZIP Code area
  • Martin County School District3,611 homes in 4 shared ZIP Code areas

Who it shares ZIP Codes with

These districts appear alongside Palm Beach County in the same ZIP Code areas: Martin County and Hendry County. A single-name lookup for one of those areas has to choose between them, and the choice is right for some addresses and wrong for others.

Have a street address?

A ZIP Code names every district that can serve the area; a street address settles which one serves a home. The Census Bureau geocoder takes an exact address and returns its school districts from the current boundary files, free and with no account.

What to do next

Ask the district office to confirm your street address: look on its site for a school locator, a find my school tool or an attendance zone map, or call the office.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: in 5 of the 53 ZIP Code areas Palm Beach County reaches, at least one other district holds a real share of the homes as well, and the line between them runs along streets. Only the district can say which side of that line an address is on.

District websites and phone numbers here come from the NCES Common Core of Data directory, 2024-25 school year, filed under the same district ID as the Census boundary files. Where it lists no usable website, none is printed rather than guessed.

If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.

Where these numbers come from

The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file, so a fast-growing area may have changed since; ZIP Codes here are the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas; a share is a share of homes, not the chance that one address is in a district; and a district is not a school attendance zone. Every source, file and caveat is on the method page.
