School Overview

Twentynine Palms Elementary sits in the heart of the High Desert, serving a community that's part military town, part artist enclave, and part gateway to Joshua Tree National Park. The school's science scores stand out above the rest, which feels fitting for a place where kids grow up surrounded by one of the most striking natural landscapes in California. Families here tend to be a mix of Marines stationed at the nearby base and longtime desert residents who've chosen this unique, sun-drenched corner of San Bernardino County — and the school reflects that grounded, tight-knit community spirit.
