Palm Beach serves about 187,943 students across 235 schools in Palm Beach County. Like most U.S. districts, it identifies students for its gifted & talented program largely through a cognitive ability test. Its own gifted pages name the NNAT. Below is how identification typically works and how to prepare.

How qualifying scores work
Most gifted programs use a percentile cutoff — often around the 95th–98th percentile, sometimes against national norms and sometimes against local (district) norms. The exact cutoff for Palm Beach can change yearly and may differ by grade or program, so confirm the current threshold with the district. We never publish a cutoff we can't verify.
Testing window & official info
Gifted screening is usually scheduled in the fall (around September–October) for the coming school year, though some districts also test in spring. Windows vary — confirm the exact dates with your district.
The real test, dates, and cutoff live on the district's own page.
