I have two boys that attended White Pine and I believe it is a wonderful school with wonderful and educated faculty and great staff. They are all so helpful and caring. I now have a Granddaughter attending White Pine and hope she has the same experience. Looking forward to seeing her success!

They have a great balance of students: GATE, special ed, ESL. The staff and teachers are committed to teaching respect and tolerance throughout the year. My child's teachers have been flexible and supportive, no matter what challenges they face. Can't say enough good things about this school!
