"Pine Crest school has one of the best college placement records in the country. Period. Both of my children are thriving. Reading some of the comments below makes it abundantly clear that the school is not for everyone. The curriculum is challenging and the teachers expect their students to achieve. My 4th grader is reading at a 12 th grade level, plays 2 instruments and 2 sports. Not surprisingly, parents of Pine Crest students tend to also be high achievers and financially successful. We all want the best for our children. PineCrest is undoubtably the best school in Boca Raton."

"The school has been ok for the nine years that I was there, but the academics are not what they are hyped up to be. Public schools are doing the exact same things that Pine Crest calls advanced, and the kids are all about the money. The a lot of the teachers are mean and only want to get out as soon as possible. Everything has to do with social status in that school, and I am very happy that I am not continuing on to Pine Crest Fort Lauderdale."

"Cannot say enough good things about this school. The excellent teachers, the challenging academics, the approachable administrators, the varied extra-curricular offerings all combine to make this a wonderful and enriching educational experience for any student lucky enough to be there. I was dismayed to read the reviews claiming that it was all about donors, money and flash. This was not our experience at all. Any private school in Boca Raton will have its share of inappropriate displays of wealth by its families but for every student like that there are a hundredfold more who are grounded kids sent there by reality-based working parents who only want an excellent education for their children. Pine Crest also does a wonderful job of building character along with the great academics. My children have been there since Kindergarten and are now in Middle School. It has been a wonderful experience for our family."

"Overrated. School is always looking for $$$$$. Academics are inconsistent and class sizes are larger than a public school. This isn't your parent's Pine Crest. Big donor's kids get mysterious grade adjustments.... The culture is all about the money and success at all costs regardless of the consequences. Madoff would be proud. Will move my son after this year to another private school or public school. He is doing fine academically, but the school is just empty calories and mean spirited."
