Each year the PPN hosts two appreciation luncheons to celebrate Pingree's dedicated faculty and staff. Information about luncheons and how to contribute will be shared with the parent community as luncheon dates near.

Each year, PPN grade-level representatives host one on-campus parent social known as the Parent Potluck, and one off-campus social at a local venue for parents and guardians to connect and get to know one another.

One per trimester, parents and guardians are invited to enjoy a good book and lively discussion together. For more information about this year's book club please contact Pam Armstrong P'27.

Each fall and spring, the PPN hosts learning garden events for parents and guardians such as a fall floral arranging workshop or a spring herb planting event.

Located on the athletics field, the Snack Shack is entirely staffed by parent volunteers and is open everyday after school. Volunteering at the Snack Shack is a great way to meet fellow parents and interact with students. Seasonal volunteer sign-ups are shared via PPN emails and are also included in the weekly e-newsletter.
