Keeping Our Campuses Weapon-Free

The safety of our students and staff is the School District of Palm Beach County’s highest priority.

To support a safe learning environment, the District does not allow weapons on school property.

This applies to all District schools, administrative buildings, personal vehicles, school buses, and school-sponsored events.
