Royal Palm Academy is a PK3-8 grade Catholic school where students are known by name, treated with respect, taught to act with respect towards others, and grow in virtue and faith while building confidence academically and in extracurricular activities. They offer a multitude of activities for students and parents alike to build not just a school community but a family-friendly community. It's truly a one-of-a-kind experience and second to none in SWFL.

RPA surpasses our standards of academic excellence as well as Florida's academic standards without a doubt. Coming from great schools up north, I have to say that we would be hard pressed to find a school as sound as RPA if we moved back. The teachers also show genuine love and concern for all of their students. RPA needs the recognition of being an outstanding family centered, academically sound, well-staffed and loving community.

My first encounter with this school was one of warmth, kindness and excellence. They are one big family. The school focuses on building character in children, which is so important. I would recommend this school and hope to be a part of their family for a long time.
