Pinewood Acres School (Closed 2015)

The faculty and administration strive to make school an enjoyable experience for all students, as well as academically productive.
Small classes, a close student-teacher relationship, pleasant classrooms, and beautiful surroundings all combine to make these objectives a reality.
We all want what is best for our children, not only in terms of the physical necessities of life, but in terms of the growth and development of the total child, the functioning human being who will one day have to make his or her way in this world.
We are interested in quality - the quality of the mental and emotional lives of our children, the quality of the experiences we provide for them through which they may mature and grow.
