4/5/2025
Palmer High school is a good school I've been there all 4 years! And it's been nothing but the best experience for a high school. Good teachers good students everyone participates in school activities.
9/27/2024
One of the worst parts of going to Palmer is that there's no AC so the buildings always hot they have fans for some classes but they're too loud and it's hard to hear.
7/9/2024
I moved to Palmer High school my senior year and in my opinion, it is a really good college prep school. There are three different main buildings for this school that are all separate which creates a sense of a college campus. Overall, it is a very freeing school and diversity, and uniqueness is very encouraged.

This school is a fantastic choice for students wanting to pursue the IB education (International Baccalaureate Programme) at Palmer. The teachers and peers in the programme are great at encouraging learning and supporting a well-rounded education.
5/12/2022
Great school. They have a lot of programs that other schools don't offer. Culturally diverse and a lot of school pride. The teachers and staff at this school are incredible.
3/16/2022
Horrible BOD, incompetent and uncaring theater department, dangerous campus and unresponsive leadership not to mention gross lack of equity
2/27/2022
Great School! Teachers in the IB Programme are great and the sports are good too!!
