    The Pingry Experience

    "It's impossible to imagine any place striving harder than we do. The creative process is held in such high regard here—it makes me excited to come in every day and see what's new."

    —Deirdre O'Mara P '17, '19, '21, Upper School biology teacher

    The Pingry Difference

    "A lot of what I did at Pingry really shaped what I did in college. You have a camp of people who go into college trying to reinvent themselves. For me, I didn't feel like I was doing anything different. The path I took at Pingry really helped to pave the way for me going forward."—TanTan Wang '16

    Expression at Pingry

    "Those years under the watchful eyes of my drama teachers . . . set me up handsomely for the work I do. I know now to find my joy and fight for it. To those Pingry artists who are scared to do what you love: find it, fight for it. It’s worth the struggle."

    Pingry Pride

    “Here, you get back to the foundation of soccer and you realize why you love it, and to be able to win a state title is incredible. Playing with your friends is something you don't always get to do and that is what makes high school soccer so special.” —Alexandra Weber '20

    A Pingry Education

    "We have a framework of curriculum, but we're given the freedom and trust to approach the material the way we feel is best. It's what makes this school exceptional rather than just a great private school." —Aaron Kellner, Grade 4 teacher
