Here's What’s Great About Palm Beach County Schools

In addition, incoming students whose families completed a 'Request for Student ID Number' for the purpose of submitting a Choice application for the 2024-2025 school year will need to register in person at their Choice or zoned school during school hours following the release of Choice lottery results on March 28, 2024, at 4 p.m.
