Palms Middle

Palms Middle sits in the heart of the Palms neighborhood on LA's Westside, a laid-back, walkable pocket of the city that feels a bit removed from the urban hustle despite being minutes from Culver City and the 10 freeway. The school holds its own academically in a competitive Westside landscape, with solid scores across English, math, and science that put it well above the state average. Families who want a neighborhood school with genuine community roots — and easy access to the parks, coffee shops, and creative energy that define this part of LA — tend to feel right at home here.
