- Submitted by student on November 26, 2015My experience was really, really good at this school, but I was your stereotypical theater kid and took every art class my schedule would allow. My brother's experience, however, was awful being in the athletics program. The coaches brought in from outside have no concern for the students whatsoever. My brother didn't play in a single football game this season even when he was cleared by his doctors after injuries and the team was losing 45-14. It would be understandable if the team was tied or the score was close, but it wasn't. Having dealt with them before my brother came to my school, I thought the people over at the athletics center were just jerks to me because I was an arts kid who helped get the musical passed as an athletic activity. Turns out, they're like that for everyone. If you're into the arts, you'll really find yourself here. If you're into athletics...run away.
- Submitted by student on June 17, 2013I did not like Pingree when I attended. The math and sciences were really poor. I was lucky to get accepted as an engineering major and I found that I was unprepared compared to the other students. I spent the fist year playing catch-up. It looks like Pingree has gotten better with offering more engineering relevant courses. I hope they are also encouraging students to take them.
- Submitted by parent on March 07, 2013Our daughter is in her first year at Pingree and loves everything about it! Creative and demanding academics taught by credentialed teachers who really connect with the kids. A wide variety of traditional and non-traditional sports teams and activities. Freshman art rotation creates a safe environment for trying new things without fear of failure. A headmaster who embraces the latest research on learning and the adolescent mind. Strong commitment to a diverse student body. Nurturing culture that offers a niche for every student. We are so pleased we chose Pingree.
- Submitted by parent on September 14, 2012Overall academic level of school is mediocre at best with a very few exceptions. Definitely not worth the money and the small size in fact likely diminishes as opposed to enhancing student achievement. Observations based on real life comparison of our children attending different private schools, supported by parents of many classmates over their last 2 years. Don't let your child convince you otherwise as we unfortunately did.
