The number of kids at this school was close to 900 a few years ago.
Now they are lucky to have 450.
Many teachers have left.
Many athletes have left.
They probably blame it on Covid.
The truth is out there, but you won't get it from them. Close Quote

Both of my children attended Pinecrest, and I wish we'd been able to get to the school sooner! The teachers truly care about the students they teach, and I loved the Integral Formation approach to educating the whole child. They were taught truth and groomed to be Christian leaders. Close Quote

The test scores and awards speak for themselves academically. The manners of the students and overall caring atmosphere is notable. A family atmosphere where trying your best is expected. Glad to be part of the family. What a band, too! The upper school band will be playing at Carnegie Hall this year. By the way the band is in its third year! Go Paladins! Close Quote

The school is horrible academically, especially the lower school. You would be better off putting your kid in the Forsyth county schools. Close Quote

My daughter is in her 8th year at Pinecrest. I have had perfect peace of mind since her first day. The academics are excellent and it is the only college prep school in the area. The students are well mannered and are taught and shown how to be of service to those in need. I have never seen such a loving school campus. Close Quote

A gem of a school in North Georgia. Pinecrest is ranked one of the top 50 Catholic high schools in the US by the National Catholic High School Honor Roll (Acton Institute). A Pinecrest senior had the highest GPA in Forsyth county in 2009 and 2010. Super athletics program too- state winners or runner-up in football, soccer, and cross country. Close Quote

Excellent academic programs at all levels. Gender separation from 4th grade- 12th grade. Loving environment. Students are formed with a sense of service and giving to those in need. There is a peace of mind that I have found as a parent that I have not felt elsewhere. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
