Our daughter absolutely loved the Pre-K program at Pinecrest and is still there today (in the 5th grade). The teachers offer such personal attention to the students and it is SUCH a loving environment that we couldn't imagine going to school anywhere else. The family environment of the school is what makes it all the more special. We LOVE Pinecrest!

We LOVE PA! All three of our kids are receiving a wonderful education here. The teachers, faculty and staff have taken the time to get to know each of our kids and work with them in a fun, educational and loving environment. I can think of no other school that offers that personal attention. Currently, we have one in Middle School, one in the Lower School and one in Kindergarten. All three of our kids are thriving and happy here. I think that says it all!

Our family has had children at Pinecrest since 1995. Besides the excellent curriculum and quality instruction in the PK program, we most appreciate how loved our kids feel by the faculty and staff. The positive and nurturing environment really makes a difference as children transition from early childhood to school life. An added benefit is how the school reinforces values we teach our kids at home. If you live in north Atlanta, I highly recommend looking into Pinecrest for your PK child!

My son attended Pincrest in Pre-K3, Pre-K-4, Kindergarten and is still there in 5th grade! We love the school and he loves school all the way through. The curriculum makes learning fun! The teachers are awesome. They treat each child like they are family because we are one big family on the Pinecrest campus from Pre-K to 12th grade. The older students love seeing the younger students around campus and being a good role model for them. We've been with the school nine years with an older daughter whom is in 8th grade now.

Pinecrest is a special place and is the ONLY school we would ever think of for our children. The family environment is amazing and teachers are wonderful. They care about each and every one of their students. We have been there for 14 years and are looking forward to many more years there.

The teachers are loving, extremely qualified and devoted to helping each child reach their potential. They are always striving to improve the curriculum and are very responsive to the families. My husband and I love it...but more important, our PreK child loves it! No tears in the morning--he's eager to go!

Great teachers and facilities. Awesome family environment and connected to the community. We started our son in Pre-K and never left. He is a Junior this year.

There is a special feeling at Pinecrest, and you can see it in the students. I love how Pinecrest gets to know every student, and works as a team with the parents to do what is best for each individual child. My children feel safe, secure and loved, and they are challenged to do their best academically, and with service to others.

*****

Pinecrest PK is really distinguished by their teachers. All of them have years of experience, and they truly love their little students. You should visit to see the difference!
