We are Episcopal and we exist to prepare our students for lives of purpose. It's a long, beautiful journey and you, the parent, are our partners every step of the way. We believe that educating the "whole child" isn't just a buzzword. We live out our mission by offering strong, balanced programs in academics, arts, athletics, and spirituality, that allow our students to find their passions and give back to the world.

Episcopal schools are Christian communities whose missions integrate spiritual formation into all aspects of the educational experience in a graceful and inclusive way. Even the most diverse of Episcopal schools, are created to be communities that honor, celebrate and worship God as the center of life.

We are created to be models of God’s love and grace. We are created to serve God in Christ in all persons, regardless of origin, background, ability, or religion. We are created to “strive for justice and peace among all people and [to] respect the dignity of every human being.”

Episcopal schools have been established, however, not solely as communities for Christians, like a parish church, but as diverse institutions of educational and human development for people of all faiths and backgrounds. Episcopal schools are populated by a rich variety of human beings, from increasingly diverse religious, cultural, and economic backgrounds.

By weaving the principles of meaningful school worship, rich community life, foundational religious education, and striving for social justice into the very fabric of the school’s overall life, Episcopal schools ensure that we challenge all who attend our schools to build lives of genuine meaning, purpose and service in the world they will inherit.

Episcopal's mission focuses our program on five areas of growth: spiritual, intellectual, moral, physical, and artistic, with the end goal of developing young women and men of character who seek to live "purposeful lives." We believe that there are many paths toward a life of purpose, and choosing the right path is a deeply personal and joyful journey.
