School Notes
Learning. Students from across Acadiana come to ESA for an
engaging education rooted in Episcopal values. What they discover
is a place to explore and to develop all the skills they need to
grow into healthy, successful individuals. Our curriculum is
illuminated by an interactive teaching style that creates lifelong
learners who think and communicate clearly and effectively.
Instruction emphasizes problem-solving, independent thinking and
creativity. ESA teachers love to teach because they know what it's
like to love to learn. They share a passion for the subjects they
teach and for the students they mentor.
Living. Visitors sense the spirit and enthusiasm of our
community as soon as they arrive. All ESA students participate in
the life of the school, through hands-on classes; through
activities such as student government, the arts, and participatory
athletics; and through daily interactions in Chapel, on the decks
and in the classrooms. They take part in student life alongside
teachers, classmates and friends who support one another's
intellectual, social, physical and spiritual growth.
Growing. ESA encourages students to develop as scholars and as
people. Students are challenged to try new things, to speak out and
to create new opportunities for discovering and learning. At the
same time, through the Honor Code and the relationships they build,
students learn to respect the ideas, beliefs and values of those
around them. They become independent, confident graduates who find
success at colleges and universities across the country and around
the world.
School shootings and other emergency situations won't happen in your school, right? Who knows! Better to put in place the steps necessary to protect the school community than to be caught unprepared.
