Welcome to tpa!

The Palmas Academy is on its way to becoming an elite independent school and one of the top college preparatory schools in the Caribbean and North America. That is our purpose and our commitment. We are fortunate to be located in the beautiful and very safe setting of the Palmas del Mar resort community, coupled with extraordinary facilities for sports and special programs, and above all, a community that enthusiastically supports all of our efforts.

In a relatively short time, we have made notable improvements to our facilities, from adding and upgrading athletic facilities to a remodeled library and media center and an enhanced cafeteria and food service. A master plan is in place to continue to improve our facilities in the years ahead. Most importantly, we are in the process of transforming our teaching and learning practices with the goal of elevating our school to new heights.  We want every classroom to become a dynamic learning environment that is student-centered and where students have the chance to explore their interests, discover special talents, and challenge themselves to take healthy risks that will allow them to become the best version of themselves. A team of deeply committed, well-prepared, and caring educators has been assembled to lead the charge in this next chapter of TPA's history.

I am beyond excited to embark on this journey and honored to continue to lead this metamorphosis of The Palmas Academy. 

Sincerely,
David R. Sanabria,

Head of School
