About Pinewood

Marysville School District purchased the 10-acre site that Pinewood Elementary was later built on in October of 1958, but no plans were made for the school at that time until a population increase warranted it. Pinewood Elementary opened 10 years later in the fall of 1968. School was scheduled to start on September 3, 1968, but due to unforeseen delays in construction and equipment, construction was not complete. The bulk of Pinewood students were emergency housed at different schools.

On October 14, 1968, over 500 students grades K-5 started attending Pinewood. Newspaper articles described the new school as "designed for modern education."

Today at Pinewood Elementary, we continue to serve approximately 500 students, grades K-5. We have 25 classrooms including our Special Education and Highly Capable programs.

We are the Pinewood Panthers and we are "Better Together"!
