Welcome to Pinedale. These are very exciting times at Pinedale. We are busy implementing the many new instructional initiatives, which have been adopted by the Duval County School District. We are continuing to learn how to utilize the new technology available in our classrooms. Each classroom has four networked computers for student use as well as a printer, in addition each teacher has access to a multimedia projector.

The climate at Pinedale is changing as we adopt the “Foundations” philosophy in our work with children. The goal of Foundations is to produce safe and civil schools. We are fortunate to offer our students a full art, music, P.E and media program. Students also take advantage of after school activities including Gentlemen's Club, Girl’s Club and Art Club.

Pinedale is the home of 8 self-contained special needs classrooms and an ESE Inclusion program. This demographic helps to foster tolerance and an appreciation for diversity within our students and staff. We welcome visitors to our campus at any time.
