Royal Palm Beach High School is a surprising experience, they have the resources that can help students prepare for college with the AICE, AP, IB, and Duel enrollment classes, however some teachers, especially AICE, don't have teachers who really know what they're doing. The school is more concerned for having teachers teach subjects that are needed, not having teachers teach the subjects they are familiar with or studied for.

As a student at Royal Palm Beach HighSchool. I believe our school has a bad reputation but is better than communicated. Our principal is gradually making the school better but the horizon between scholars and staff is getting better.

My step daughter goes here and she said the bathroom smells like weed from kids smoking, the teachers allow you to use your phones in class and they act careless of what the kids do in the classroom. From what I hear it doesn't sound very good.
