What Eaton families say
“Eaton was transformational for our teen daughter. Ari and her team created an environment where kids can be themselves and flourish.”
“We cannot recommend Eaton enough! From day one, the staff made my daughters feel genuinely welcome. The small-group setting is hands-on and personal rather than overwhelming, and they were eager to go back each week — which says everything.”
Pinecrest Microschool FAQ
What is the Movement microschool?
A microschool is a very small, intentionally tiny school. Our Pinecrest Movement program caps each group at 12 students and blends small-group, project-based academics with athletic training at a dedicated climbing facility — built for student athletes in grades 6-12.
What grades and ages does the Pinecrest microschool serve?
The Pinecrest campus serves grades 6-12 (ages 11-18). For grades K-2, see our Kendall microschool.
Where in Pinecrest does the program meet?
The program meets at our partner facility, Las Rocas Climbing, 9600 S Dixie Hwy, Miami, FL 33156 — convenient for families across Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay, South Miami, and Coral Gables.
What days and hours does the program run?
Our 3-day Movement program runs Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM — leaving the rest of the week open for training, competition, and family time.
Do students really climb and train during the school day?
Yes — physical education is woven into every program day. Students train, climb, and move at the facility as part of the daily rhythm, and the discipline and focus carry straight back into their academic blocks.
How much does the Pinecrest microschool cost?
Tuition is $15,000 per year (or $1,500 per month), plus a one-time $500 registration fee per student. Many Miami-Dade families offset this with Florida education scholarships, including FES-UA, PEP, and AAA Scholarship.
