The City of Desert Hot Springs is served by the Palm Springs Unified School District. Just a short drive away, College of the Desert, the valley's community college, and the Palm Desert campus of Cal State San Bernardino, offer students a variety of associates level and bachelor's degree programs.
Each year, California elementary school students are tested in reading, math, language and spelling. High school students are tested on reading, math, language, science and social science. From these scores, an Academic Performance Index is calculated to allow districts to be compared to one another and determine how they are improving over time.
In 2004, Palm Springs Unified School District students scored the highest on the test among the three Coachella Valley school districts.
