We are having a blast, recharging and exploring, but we are missing our school family! We hope all of our Pine Forest kiddos and families are having a safe, fun, and wonderful summer so far. Vidor ISD

🌲We’re excited to welcome a new member to our Pine Forest Elementary family! Please help us give a warm welcome to Mrs. Sulinda Mahana, who will be joining our third-grade team for the 2026-2027 school year! We are so happy to have her on board!! 🖤💛🏴‍☠️

From Mrs. Mahana,

“I am thrilled to bring my 27 years teaching experience, mostly in 3rd grade, to Pine Forest. I look forward to working with the students and staff to create learning opportunities and cherished memories. Our family is particularly excited about this move since my husband grew up in Vidor and actually attended Pine Forest as a child. We have 2 daughters and a precious grandson.”

We’re so proud of the talent and teamwork shown by Paxton West and Porter Lightfoot at the Ripken Experience! After a highly competitive week and an impressive 6-1-1 record, they’ve earned their well-deserved second-place finish.

We want to celebrate all the amazing things our students achieve outside the school day! If your child recently participated in an event, won an award, or reached a personal milestone, we would love to feature them on our page.

Please email a photo and a quick description of their story to Principal Parsley at [email protected] so we can give them a well-deserved shoutout!

Congratulations, Mrs. Clayton. 🖤💛
