This school is a part of Palm Springs Unified School District

Palm Springs Unified is a district in a state of 'Mixed/Transition,' characterized by a stark performance gap between its affluent-zone schools and its lower-performing campuses in Desert Hot Springs and Thousand Palms. While the district earns points for its robust Career Technical Education programs, modern facility upgrades, and proactive security measures, these operational successes are offset by severe academic inconsistencies, with nearly one-third of its schools rated 2/10 or lower. Despite signs of leadership stability and community trust in bond measures, the district remains a 'Tier 3' entity due to ongoing struggles with teacher recruitment and a portfolio that fails to deliver uniform quality across all feeder patterns.
