Episcopal High School
Episcopal High School exists to provide a superior college-preparatory education for students in grades six through twelve within a nurturing Christian atmosphere. The School offers not only an ongoing and serious pursuit of excellence but also a group of people who genuinely care for and about each other.
The School's traditional liberal arts curriculum challenges the college-bound student by focusing on effective communications, critical thinking, problem solving and technical skills. The School's faculty displays an outstanding academic background, excellent character and dedication to the overall well being of the students. The faculty affirms the ultimate worth of each student to form healthy self-esteem and respect for others. Episcopal is committed to small class size and an environment that is orderly, achievement-oriented, supportive and positive.
The same quest for excellence that drives our academic program shapes our commitment to programs in athletics and the arts. Through the opportunities these programs provide, students may experience not only the self-discipline and exertion of a competitive sport but also the development and growth of their creative talents.
Through regular worship, probing classes in Judeo-Christian studies and an active community service program, the School instills in its students values and commitments that will equip them for useful, satisfying and unselfish lives. The Episcopal community is committed to the development of students academically, athletically, creatively and spiritually.
The Vestry of St. John's Cathedral in Jacksonville elects the Board of Trustees. Sixteen of the 26 board members are charter members of the Episcopal Church. The dean of St. John's Cathedral is the vice-chair and clergy member of the board.
The Board of Trustees establishes the philosophy, mission and policies of the School, employs a head of school to operate the School within those policies and is responsible for the preservation and enhancement of the School's assets. All inquiries regarding the daily operation of the School are directed to the head of school and her staff.
