Ms. Schurdak has been working as an administrator with this age group for over 20 years and is excited to join Pingry, having been struck “by the commitment of the Middle School faculty to educating middle schoolers… They are both serious and joyful about their work.”
Faculty & Staff

At Pingry, we take great pride in fostering a culture of excellence in everything we do. 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 sportsmanship, teamwork, responsibility, and self-discipline. And with every encounter, faculty and staff help 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, and Pingry’s Professional Growth (Pro Grow) Committee is a determined one, actively encouraging career growth and development through such offerings as:
- Conferences and workshops
- Visits to other schools
- Summer Fellowships
- Opportunities to pursue advance degrees
- Nine endowed chairs
