Pine Forest High School is a high school in Pensacola, Florida. It was opened in 1974.
Pine Forest High is located on Longleaf Drive in a cluster of education buildings. Its neighbors are Longleaf Elementary School and George Stone Career Center.
The school was originally designed as a social experiment that included modular classroom walls (without doors on classrooms) in most areas to help promote open communication between teachers and students, as well as to foster the development of better manners, and social skills.[citation needed] However, little proof has been offered as to the validity of this idea and the modular walls were seldom put to use. The school has been renovating and replacing the modular walls with permanent walls.

The Eagles also won the 5A state championship in 1987 and the 4A state championship in 2000. Pine Forest also played the state championship in 2006, but did not claim a victory.
The mascot is an eagle and the colors are red, white, and blue. The school also offers other sports.
