Pinewood had the most significant increase in student proficiency for elementary schools. We exceeded our academic growth expectations, and we achieved a higher school performance score – up nine points!

Providing care for students at school

Thanks to our partnership with Kintegra Health, we offer a telehealth clinic here at our school. Students, who are experiencing a minor illness or condition, can be seen by a medical provider virtually. This allows us to provide care for students without them having to leave school to go to the doctor.
