I attended pine view for grades 2-12, a total of ten years in my life. I got to know all members of my graduating class, as it was so small. The teachers and overall environment prepared us for college. However, the Pine View culture is full of drugs, racism, and bullying.

I moved here from Island Village Montessori School in eighth grade and it was horrible, I had to move back after three weeks I could not stand it. All they do is give you busy work.
