Summary

Pine Ridge Middle School in Naples, FL, is a solid public school serving 791 students in grades 6-8 within the highly-rated Collier County School District, though it has seen a gradual decline from its peak as a top-tier 5-star school to a still-strong 4-star performer.

One of the school's standout features is its exceptional advanced math program. In 2025-2026, an impressive 92% of students were proficient in Algebra 1, and a perfect 100% achieved proficiency in Geometry—dramatically higher than district and state averages. This success, however, highlights a notable challenge: the school's standard 8th-grade math track has shown volatility, with proficiency dropping to just 31% in 2024-2025 before rebounding to 88% the following year. This suggests a "two-track" system where top math students are accelerated, potentially leaving the standard curriculum needing more support. On a positive note, Pine Ridge boasts a low chronic absenteeism rate of 11.8%, well below the district (17.4%) and state (31.4%) averages, indicating a positive school environment.

When compared to nearby schools, Pine Ridge is a good choice but no longer the top performer in its area. It is outperformed by North Naples Middle School (ranked 67th in the state) and Oakridge Middle School (ranked 107th), which both show higher proficiency in subjects like ELA and science. Pine Ridge also spends more per student ($14,025) than these higher-ranked neighbors, suggesting that spending alone doesn't guarantee top-tier results. For parents, Pine Ridge offers a strong community and an elite advanced math program, but it faces increasing competition and must work to strengthen its standard curriculum to reverse its decade-long ranking decline.
