Pioneer Springs Community School

Specialties

Pioneer Springs Community School was created to give more families the opportunity to be a part of a community school built on the Basic School principles of Dr. Ernest L. Boyer. At Pioneer Springs, we believe a school can:

— Keep the urge to learn burning bright in every student through individualized, hands-​on exploration of an integrated curriculum.

— Foster the growth of the whole student: physically, emotionally, creatively, socially, as well as academically.

— Function as a true community of learning in which students, parents, teachers, and staff all work together to achieve common goals.

History

Established in 2012.

Pioneer Springs Community School is located in the Historic Croft Schoolhouse, a registered historic landmark, just south of Huntersville off Highway 115 at 9200 Bob Beatty Road, Charlotte, NC 28 269. The original Croft School first opened its doors in 1890 to serve the rural, railroad-​centered business district of Croft in North Mecklenburg County. Now, almost 80 years since the school’s closing, the historic schoolhouse halls are once again filled with children’s laughter and learning.
