Thank you so much Carin for all the designs you've made for our school throughout the years, and for your beautiful mural by the stairs in the 700 building. "You have your thing" and have shared it with all of us over the years! We appreciate you being KIND and GENEROUS!
2017 - 2018: It's A Wrap!

Dear friends:

It's been such an eventful and amazing year - and we have so many to thank! It has been an honor to serve as your PTA President and on behalf of the Pinecrest Elementary PTA, I would like to thank you all, our school community (parents, teachers, administrators, staff, custodians, volunteers and students), for helping make 2017-2018 a great year!

We faced several challenges, including Hurricane Irma, and still accomplished so much working together. Whether by volunteering in our classrooms, events, different committees, and/or supporting our fundraisers, you have all contributed and are part of Pinecrest Elementary’s force. You all make a difference in our children’s life! 

Together we were able to fulfill our school’s wish list this year! Thanks to our fundraising efforts, students will have the following this coming year:
