In 1984, the Sulphur Springs School District sold $2.87 million worth of bonds to build an additional school to service the expanding east side Canyon Country area of Santa Clarita.  This major transaction led to the construction of Pinetree Community School which opened in the Fall of 1988 with eighteen classrooms and twenty-two teachers and Principal Nick Teeter.

In early 2018, Pinetree was the first school in the district to receive a state of the art Learning Center in the central hub of the campus which features the new and improved Library as well as a Maker Space Center and a Multimedia Center. In Fall 2018, Pinetree will be celebrating their 30th Anniversary and will also be entering a major reconstruction to modernize the campus.
