Who We Are

 

Mission

To prepare students for a life of learning and meaningful service in a diverse and global world, by providing academic excellence and character formation inclusive of all of God’s children and grounded in the Episcopal tradition.

Vision

To send our students out into the world with a mutual respect for others and a love of learning grounded in our Episcopal tradition of academic, ethical and spiritual growth. We will serve as the benchmark in our community and beyond for implementation of 21st Century skills, commitment to community and service and preparation for a diverse, global world. EDS will be the school of choice for parents, students and teachers.

Diversity

In support of the Mission and Core Values of Episcopal Day School, we seek to create a thriving, diverse community in which human differences are understood, respected and seen as vital reflections of our larger society and world. As a student-centered community of learners, we value human diversity as a rich, living educational resource for fulfillment of our mission.

Core Values

We believe that our Christian identity embraces a unified community of diverse people and ideas. We foster each student’s moral and ethical growth, while embracing a pursuit of academic excellence.

We believe that our students should discover and cultivate their unique gifts and talents. We challenge each individual to achieve his or her full potential, and partner with parents to ensure success.

We value critical thinking, collaboration, communication and creativity, grounded in pursuit of the highest academic standards. We engage each student in a rigorous and enriched academic program infused with technological integration. We balance modern innovative methodology with proven traditional instruction.

We believe joy is a choice that we make each day. While life can bring challenges and happiness can be situational, our joy recognizes all that God has done for us, including the gifts He has given us to serve our community and strengthen our global world. We seek to rejoice in the Lord always!
