Episcopal Identity

Striving for justice and respecting the dignity of every human being is not just a hope for us, but an expectation. In keeping this immovable standard, not only do we reflect the heart of Episcopal identity, but we also perpetuate our haven of freedom and diversity.

• Episcopal schools are places of genuine HOSPITALITY that support the spiritual growth of all, regardless of faith tradition, even as they illuminate the school’s Episcopal roots and heritage.
• As schools that reflect the Christian HERITAGE, Episcopal schools give the academic study of the Bible a primary place.
• Episcopal schools have long understood that multiple voices and perspectives are necessary for sound learning and wise decision making. To this end, Episcopal schools strive to be INCLUSIVE communities that promote open and reasoned dialogue that breaks down barriers and promotes human understanding.
• Episcopal schools create and sustain a school culture that advances the dignity and well-being of each person and promotes a genuine sense of BELONGING.
