Forsyth County School Thrives on Family Involvement

Parents are the primary educators of their children, and Pinecrest Academy views parents as partners.

As a PreK3-12 Catholic school in the North Atlanta area, Pinecrest Academy believes parents are the primary educators of their children. With that in mind, the environment at Pinecrest is likened to an extended family. Students feel safer, more comfortable, and more passionate about learning. Families are an integral part of their child’s education, which helps strengthen parent-child relationships. Parents are always welcome on campus, and the school offers programs specifically for parents throughout the school year. It is often said, "When you enroll at Pinecrest, the whole family attends!"

During the summer months, Pinecrest's Admissions team is hosting tours and continuing to enroll students for the 2024-2025 school year. Touring the school allows families to not only learn about Pinecrest's educational philosophy, but also to see, first-hand, the beautiful 68-acre campus, where there is much green space, a beautiful setting for learning.
