Palos Verdes Schools




Palos Verdes schools is one of the most important reasons families choose to live here. The Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District has 10 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools which are among the top 100 best high schools in the country; Palos Verdes Peninsula High School (or “Peninsula Hi”) and Palos Verdes High School (or “PV Hi”).


Students are generally assigned to specific schools for kindergarten through eighth grade by the home residence address. However, sometimes, an elementary school may reach its enrollment capacity and the student(s) may have to attend another elementary school within the school district. There are no attendance boundaries for the high school level. To locate the school of attendance, go to http://www.pvpusd.k12.ca.us/intranet/street05.htm.


Both Peninsula and Palos Verdes high schools were ranked in U.S. News & World Report magazine’s list of the top 100 America’s best high schools posted November 29, 2007. Peninsula Hi came in at No. 89, while PV Hi was No. 93. See the full list here: http://www.usnews.com/articles/education/high-schools/2007/11/29/gold-medal-schools.html.
