PALM BEACH COUNTY JAIL

PALM BEACH COUNTY JAIL is a public high school that is part of the PALM BEACH school district, located in WEST PALM BEACH, FL with about 25 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 7 teachers, PALM BEACH COUNTY JAIL has a student/teacher ratio of about 3:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

It appears there is a significant discrepancy in the information provided. The address you listed (**3228 Gun Club Rd, West Palm Beach, FL**) is the official location of the **Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Main Detention Center** (the county jail), not a K-12 school.

The website you provided (**palmbeachschools.org**) is the official portal for the **School District of Palm Beach County**, which is a public school system serving K-12 students across the county. It is common for government databases or automated mapping services to occasionally conflate administrative addresses or link public entities together, but these two institutions serve completely different functions.

Here is a summary of the two entities to help clarify:

**The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (3228 Gun Club Rd)**
This facility is a secure correctional institution operated by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. It functions as the primary jail for the county, housing individuals who are awaiting trial or serving short-term sentences. It is a high-security environment focused on law enforcement, inmate management, and judicial processing.

**The School District of Palm Beach County (palmbeachschools.org)**
This is the governing body for the 10th largest school district in the United States. Its mission is to provide public education to over 190,000 students across hundreds of elementary, middle, and high schools throughout Palm Beach County. The website provides resources for parents, students, and teachers, including curriculum information, school calendars, enrollment procedures, and district news.

**Recommendation:**
If you are looking for information regarding a specific school in Palm Beach County, I recommend using the **[School District’s School Locator tool](https://www.palmbeachschools.org/school_locator)** on their website. If you are trying to contact the detention center for legal or visitation purposes, please verify the contact information through the **[Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office website](https://www.pbso.org)**, as the school district website will not contain information regarding inmate services.

For more information, contact PALM BEACH COUNTY JAIL at (561) 681-5908 or visit the school personally to speak with a faculty or administrative member about any specific questions you may have.
