As we continue to work toward excellence in our school and community. I would like to assure you that we will do everything possible to meet our goal. “Excellence in all we do.” Our students are our most precious possession. Our staff is committed to providing the best educational program available to our students in a safe, nurturing environment. Our instructional program will concentrate on the core curriculum of reading writing, mathematics, science, and social studies.

The staff and students at Pine Lake Elementary School are to be commended for their achievements. Let’s make this year the best school year ever!
Our Mission
We provide the highest quality education so that all of our students are empowered to lead productive and fulfilling lives as lifelong learners, responsible citizens, and protectors of our global environment.
Our History
Pine Lake Elementary School was built in 1977. It is located on 9.13 acres in southwest Miami-Dade County at 16700 SW 109th Avenue. Our School consists of one two story structure with open pod classrooms in the main building. Pine Lake Elementary was completely renovated in 1994 to repair damage caused by Hurricane Andrew. At that time, a one-story wing was added. The school has been retro-fitted to provide internet and intranet access to all classrooms.
Our Vision
We are committed to academic excellence and environmental awareness.
