A Message from the Principal
Welcome to Pinecrest Academy Roselawn, where every student is known, valued, and challenged to achieve their highest potential. Our mission is to provide individualized instruction and meaningful learning experiences that prepare students for success in college, careers, and life.
We are excited to open this year, serving students in kindergarten through fifth grade, with plans to add at least one grade level each year as we grow into a fully established K–12 school. Pinecrest Academy Roselawn will offer a well-rounded educational experience that includes rigorous academics, a strong STEM program, opportunities to earn college credits, clubs and athletics, electives, and character development.
From the very first day of school on August 12, 2026, our dedicated faculty and staff will be committed to creating a safe, engaging, and supportive learning environment where students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We are building a school culture grounded in excellence, leadership, and strong partnerships with families and the community.
My wife, Annetta, and I have been married for 41 years and are blessed with two sons, two daughters-in-law, and five grandchildren, with another grandchild on the way. We have proudly called Northwest Arkansas home for the past 14 years.
I bring more than 41 years of experience in education, serving as a school administrator, instructional coach, teacher, athletic director, and coach. I hold Arkansas lifetime certifications in both Building-Level Administration (P–12) and teaching, and I remain deeply committed to helping students succeed both inside and outside the classroom.
It is an honor to serve as the principal of Pinecrest Academy Roselawn. I invite you to join us as we establish what I believe will become one of the premier educational experiences in Arkansas. We look forward to partnering with your family and welcoming your child to our school community.
Phil Alderman
Principal
