The 20/21 school year will bring many new challenges with regards to education and child care. Due to the latest mandate by our governor ALL Los Angeles County schools will be forced to provide distance learning with some providing on-campus childcare for the children of essential workers. In order for us to remain compliant with current CDC and DSS guidelines, our academic program will be available as a distance learning format with limited academic assistance available for those students who will be utilizing our on-campus child care program. Due to space limitations, our child care is only open to students enrolled in our distance learning program.
Be advised that due to the unpredictable nature of Covid, the on-campus child care option reserves the right to close or modify services as deemed necessary to remain compliant with current health and safety protocols.

Awesome Summer School
At Pines Christian School, we continue to adhere to a time-honored traditional education. We utilize a variety of curricula but the foundation of our education is Abeka. It is a 'Christ-centered' format that extends our values in our Faith, community, and moral ethics. Although Abeka is used for most of our core subjects, we also use: Scholastic, Studies Weekly, SRA, RFU, Houghton Mifflin and others.
While our fundamentals provide a solid academic foundation, we also nurture critical thinking skills and real life applications. Unlike public schools, we do not teach to the Common Core standards, but those benchmarks and concepts are met when students graduate from Pines. Our small class size offers endless possibilities for growth in addition to personal interactions that nurture spiritual, social, and emotional maturity.
At Pines Christian Preschool, we provide a “full-service” program to better serve our busy families. Convenient services like complimentary food service and extended day care hours are available year round. We have developed a balanced academic program created to provide an exciting and active learning environment. This well-rounded program is offered at an affordable rate.
We have designed our facilities to be totally Kid Friendly! You are invited to experience the happy sounds of children at play—call us to schedule a tour!
Nurturing Staff
Our staff of qualified nurturing teachers are all ECE certified and have current CPR and First Aid certifications. We hire only experienced and nurturing teachers to care for our students.
Complimentary Meals and Snacks!
Meals and snacks are always included with your tuition. We serve a variety of meals every week, such as: spaghetti, hot dogs, sandwiches, oven baked chicken or chicken nuggets, quesadillas, tacos, and much more. Pick up a monthly menu from the preschool office.
Our preschool campus is conveniently located one mile south of the main campus at 1516 Anaheim Street Harbor City, CA 90710. Enrollment forms are available on campus.
Our facilities were designed from the ground up as a school. It’s open beamed ceilings in the classrooms, dining room, and chapel give it a camp-like atmosphere. Kids love our modern playgrounds complete with a mini-amphitheater. Our air-conditioned chapel is the perfect setting for watching a video on our 10-foot theater screen or listening to a guest speaker. Because so many of our students spend so much time on campus each week, we have designed our facilities to be Kid Friendly! You are invited to experience the happy sounds of children at play—stop by any time!

A Note from the Principal
I have been blessed to be a part of Pines Christian School since 1994. To see it grow and flourish has been a wonderful journey for me. Each year we add to the physical plant with fundraisers and parent participation, but most importantly, we see the “real” growth in our students. They begin their academic journey with little to no life experience. They see a big world but do not see their place in it. As the year progresses, we get to see them grow and mature in many ways. They make significant strides physically and academically, but most importantly, they grow in character. This year our students participated in St. Jude’s, helping fight childhood cancer. We collected pennies to help Tarahumara Indian children in Mexico get a chance at education. We sent over 26 boxes to our military to bring Christmas to our troops. We had a children’s choir from Uganda for a special chapel. This summer, we will again have many children from Japan and China share our campus. Our students are learning that while the world is a big place, every one of us has an important role to play; this an essential part of building character and a big part of the Pines experience.
