WELCOME TO

Our vision: To work in partnerships with students, family and the community to ensure that each student acquires the knowledge, skills and core values necessary to achieve personal success and enrich the community.

Principal's Message

Royal Palm not only has high expectations for our students academically, but we also want to build strong character, independence, responsibility, and respect in our students.

Parents can help us in this process, as they are also primary teachers of our students.  We should all teach and model – friendship, loyalty, team work, organizational skills, following the rules, common courtesy and kindness, cooperation, and taking responsibility for our own actions; Whether its saying “excuse me” or “I am sorry” walking down the hallway or waiting in the line at Costco.  Royal Palm Teachers regularly promote character traits through modeling, the Learning for Life program, and regular classroom discussions.  We can make a difference in our students if we work together.

Royal Palm plans to continue to enhance the learning experiences of our students and to ensure a joyful learning environment.

Robert Moretti
Principal, Royal Palm Exceptional Center
