Pine Ridge School is one of two rural elementary school sites in Magalia that serve Paradise Unified School District. While relatively untouched by the Camp Fire in 2018, the District desired to modernize all sites, particularly as more residents moved to Magalia following the fire that devastated the neighboring Town of Paradise.

Pine Ridge is largely a permanent-built school facility, but like many older school facilities, lacked the modern conveniences, furniture and technology of contemporary campuses. In an effort to remove all non-permanent spaces on campus, the administration building was stick-built and remaining spaces were modernized to complete a holistic transformation of the campus.

Pine Ridge Elementary School was the first of the two Magalia schools to be modernized following the Camp Fire.
