Episcopal High School
School Notes Overview:
Academic excellence is a way of life at Episcopal. The curriculum is designed to challenge all students at their highest level and to provide the strong foundation necessary for success in college as well as for an adult life of leadership and service. Episcopal offers an atmosphere of intellectual integrity which reinforces traditional values such as honor, compassion, care and concern. Students are trained to think critically and to communicate effectively. Classes are small, which encourages friendly interaction between students and faculty. The purpose should be to provide a quality college-preparatory education in a Christian context and environment. This school should seek to educate; and, in accomplishing this, very heavy stress should be on content. This should not be a so-called 'progressive' school. It should not be an 'environmental-adjustment' school as such, because the emphasis here should be on leadership. Physical, mental, moral and spiritual health should be stressed, and moral, ethical and spiritual values should be emphasized. ...
