School Overview

Palmer Elementary sits in the heart of Palmer Township, one of those solidly suburban pockets of the Lehigh Valley where families put down roots and stay. Scores land right around the middle of the pack statewide, making it a comfortable fit for families looking for a steady, no-frills public school experience without the intensity of some of the higher-pressure districts nearby. The area has a real small-town feel despite being just minutes from Easton's revitalized downtown, with its farmers markets, walkable streets, and growing restaurant scene — a nice backdrop for raising school-age kids.
