At Pingry, we take great pride in fostering a culture of excellence across the institution – in our academics, our athletics, and our arts. A critical component of our success: the lively interaction among faculty, staff, and students. Our teachers strive to create a collaborative environment in the classroom, encouraging students to develop their passions and take risks. Our coaches seek to build championship teams while also instilling a sense of sportsmanship, teamwork, responsibility, and self-discipline. And with every encounter, members of the Pingry community seek to create lifelong learners and problem-solvers who are prepared to lead in a global society.

A talented team. . .

Our faculty and staff are impressive – 70% hold master’s degrees and 18 hold doctorates. Pingry’s Professional Growth (Pro Grow) Committee is a determined one, actively encouraging career growth and development through such offerings as:
