Boynton Beach schools - nice, new and colorful

Boynton Beach schools - nice, new and colorful

This year, several new school buildings were completed to accommodate the
need for newer, updated facilities. In West Boynton, Sunset Palms Elementary School,
at the corner of Boynton Beach Boulevard and Acme Dairy Road opened in
August, 2008. Today, over 700 students and teachers enjoy the 123,000
square-foot technologically advanced building. The building has a Mediterranean
look which is bright and light and very colorful, including beautiful murals.

The old Hagen Ranch Road Elementary School, originally built in 1966 as
a model "open classroom" school, has finally been demolished. In its place
stands a beautiful new 129,656-square-foot, two-story school, sitting on
13 acres. This school can accommodate 889 students. Unfortunately, although
the students and staff have been in the building for a complete school year,
the grounds and fencing are still incomplete.

Forest Park Elementary School, on SW Third Street underwent a $23 million
modernization. The 40+ year-old school, on 11 acres has a new cafeteria,
media center, administrative offices and classrooms. There is a new parking lot,
bus loop, playgrounds and a covered pavilion for P.E. classes. This school offers
the prestigious International Baccalaureate program.

Boynton Beach High School is an $8.9 million project built with students
of the performing arts in mind. There are 23,000-square-feet added to the
school that includes: lobby, green room, costume shop, recording studio,
two dance studios and a chorus suite.
