The Academic Program Portrait of an Episcopal Graduate

Grounded in Episcopal’s mission to prepare students with intellectual and moral courage, the academic program is committed to providing foundational knowledge and skills in the liberal arts and sciences while also fostering individual intellectual curiosity, pursuit, and discovery. With the student-teacher relationship at the heart of learning, our students are challenged to think critically, comprehensively, creatively, and courageously in all areas of their education –– an education that uniquely incorporates the nation’s capital into the daily learning, expanding our students’ perspectives and connecting their knowledge to the world beyond The Holy Hill. Fully understanding the relevance of their learning, both in the classroom and out, EHS students graduate with the qualities that empower them to live a lifetime of learning, one in which they serve and lead as citizens of an increasingly interconnected world.
