LEARNING AT PINGREE
Here, joy, rigor, and possibility meet to make a community that encourages courageous exploration, where students develop the skills and confidence to shape their own paths in a world that no longer follows the script. At Pingree, you take the reins. You decide what happens next.
APEX
Pingree’s Advanced Pingree Educational Experiences are signature academic courses that challenge students to apply what they’ve learned in bold, interdisciplinary ways. These advanced-level classes encourage students to think creatively and critically, pursue original ideas, and engage deeply with real-world questions. Through self-directed, research-based projects, you’ll synthesize skills from across far-ranging coursework to explore topics that matter to you — and to the world. Collaboration, peer feedback, and reflection are central to the process, as is Pingree’s commitment to community. APEX projects often focus on social justice and civic impact, bridging scholarship and citizenship in meaningful, mission-driven ways.
H-Block Electives
With an ever-changing list of electives, you can participate in a rich variety of classes beyond your core subjects. H-block electives are pass/fail and provide conflict-free time for you to try out new courses and take intellectual risks. Courses range from Failure Analysis in Engineering to Hip-Hop Grooves to Introduction to Debate.
Educational Resources
Help isn’t on the way, it’s already here. Want to take a class outside of your comfort zone but know you might need some backup? Need to freshen up your organizational and time management skills to stay on top of your workload? Our resource centers and innovative spaces for studying and learning are here to help you take that challenging course, give you the tools to rewrite that research paper, and ultimately help you reach your full potential.

Juan: Where curiosity builds confidence
Our faculty love learning and teaching, and they bring that joy to the classroom. They’re forward-thinking, kind, and curious. They focus on the relationships and people in this community as much as the ideas that we’re imparting.
