HISTORY

The first graduating class of PBHS was in 1907. West Palm Beach, Florida, grew from 564 in 1900 to 1,743 in 1910. The school was moved to "The Hill" in 1908 and was the largest in SE Florida. The old school became the County courthouse in 1909. The 1928 hurricane took down the tall tower. By 1922 there were three school buildings on the site.

The last class graduated in 1970 and the new combined school, Twin Lakes, was born. They graduated their last class in 1988. Palm Beach Lakes High moved into the old school building that fall, but moved into its new facility in January 1989. The original buildings were restored and the School of Arts opened in 1997.
