Five school districts serve La Palma: Fullerton, Anaheim, Centralia, Cypress and Buena Park. Though the resulting effect on La Palma can be confusing, the city’s planners maintain positions of influence in those districts to ensure La Palma’s students receive the best education possible.

Most of the city’s students attend one of five schools within the city limits. John F. Kennedy High has more than 2,000 students, while Walker Junior High, Steve Luther Elementary, George B.

Additionally, many private and parochial schools operate throughout Orange County, including La Palma Christian School.
