After graduating from Pine Crest, Kevin attended Cornell University where he earned his Bachelor of Science. He was drafted to the NFL in 2006, but returned to the classroom to earn his Master of Business Administration from the George Washington University in 2013.  Today he works for the NFL as the Manager of Football Operations Strategy and Business Development. “A favorite memory was of my graduation from sixth grade going to Upper School,” said Kevin. At the time, the Middle School as we know it today did not exist. “I was asked to speak, and that moment still stands out to me. The title of my speech was ‘Year of the Rookie. I talked about how great my first year at Pine Crest was.” “I always make a point to come back to campus and visit,” said Kevin. “Everything about this place, my teachers, the friends that I made - many are still here and I just love coming back.” Kevin has been inspired to give to Pine Crest having donated new helmets for the football team, memorabilia and gifts to *[The Pine Crest Fund](https://www.pinecrest.edu/give#thepinecrestfund). *“I give because I want to help current students have an even better experience than I did,” said Kevin. “Pine Crest is constantly evolving to prepare students for the future. I see that every time I come back. There is always something new, I get lost on campus now! The way that I look at it, whatever I can contribute, including my time, I want to because Pine Crest means that much to me.”   Topics: [Athletics](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/athletics), [Alumni](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/alumni), [Giving](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/giving), [Pine Crest Fund](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/pine-crest-fund) ### Subscribe Here! ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Tag - [Alumni (93)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/alumni) - [Upper School (61)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/upper-school) - [Faculty (46)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/faculty) - [The Magazine (41)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/the-magazine) - [Student Life (36)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/student-life) - [Academics (33)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/academics) - [Innovation (33)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/innovation) - [2020 (30)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2020) - [2025 (30)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2025) - [Athletics (30)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/athletics) - [Middle School (30)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/middle-school) - [Giving (29)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/giving) - [Pine Crest School (28)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/pine-crest-school) - [2024 (24)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2024) - [Alumni Newsletter (24)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/alumni-newsletter) - [Fine Arts (24)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/fine-arts) - [Student Leadership (20)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/student-leadership) - [Lower School (18)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/lower-school) - [Entrepreneurship (17)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/entrepreneurship) - [Science (17)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/science) - [2019 (15)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2019) - [2023 (13)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2023) - [Admission (13)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/admission) - [COVID-19 (13)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/covid-19) - [2021 (12)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2021) - [2022 (12)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2022) - [2026 (11)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2026) - [Design Thinking (11)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/design-thinking) - [2018 (10)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/2018) - [STEM (9)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/stem) - [Social and Emotional Learning (9)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/social-and-emotional-learning) - [Pre-kindergarten (8)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/pre-kindergarten) - [Pine Crest Fund (7)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/pine-crest-fund) - [Future Ready (6)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/future-ready) - [Innovation Institute (6)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/innovation-institute) - [Panther Impact Week (5)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/panther-impact-week) - [Pine Crest Summer (5)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/pine-crest-summer) - [Robotics (5)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/robotics) - [Computer Science (4)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/computer-science) - [News (4)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/news) - [Panther Pulse (4)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/panther-pulse) - [Student Success (3)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/student-success) - [Dance (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/dance) - [Financial Aid (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/financial-aid) - [Fine Motor Skills (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/fine-motor-skills) - [Freshmen (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/freshmen) - [Music (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/music) - [outdoor learning (2)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/outdoor-learning) - [Campus Safety (1)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/campus-safety) - [Community Service (1)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/community-service) - [Digital Media Production (1)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/digital-media-production) - [emergent leadership (1)](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/tag/emergent-leadership) [See all](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/spotlight-on-kevin-boothe-01#) ## Start Your Future Today Imagine the possibilities @PineCrestSch - - - - - - - [my pine crest](https://pinecrest.myschoolapp.com/app#login) Lower School Grades PK - 5 Middle School Grades 6 - 8 Upper School Grades 9 - 12 Fort Lauderdale Campus 1501 NE 62nd Street Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33334 [(954) 492-4100](tel:9544924100) Boca Raton Campus 2700 St. Andrews Boulevard Boca Raton, Florida 33434 [(561) 852-2800](tel:5618522800) Imagine the possibilities @PineCrestSch - - - - - - - [Back to top ](https://blog.pinecrest.edu/spotlight-on-kevin-boothe-01#top)
