School Overview

Palmdale Academy Charter offers a K-12 charter option in the Antelope Valley, serving families in one of the Los Angeles metro area's more affordable and spacious corners — a high desert community where housing costs are lower and the pace of life is a bit easier than in the city below. With English scores in the mid-50th percentile range, the school holds its own academically, though math is an area where families may want to provide extra support. It's a solid choice for parents in the 93550 zip code who want a charter environment with continuity from kindergarten all the way through high school graduation.
