At The Pine School, students from Early Learning through Upper School have an opportunity to fulfill their potential within a safe and supportive academic environment. Since its inception in 1969, The Pine School has stood for academic rigor, strong moral character, and a commitment to excellence. These hallmarks of the school are apparent on our campuses, in our classrooms, on the athletic field, in the performing arts, and in the co-curricular activities of our students. As an independent school, The Pine School builds its program around its commitment to each individual student. The latest research into educational growth and development is incorporated into the curriculum, designed to address the needs of students in the 21st century. Arts and athletics are integrated into the program of every student. Multiculturalism, opportunities to explore the world outside the classroom, and interaction with the best thinkers and artistic performers are part of the academic life of our students. Service learning and co-curricular activities contribute to the overall vitality of the school, long after classes have ended each day.
