Boldly ESJ Campaign Celebrates Opening of Haskell Center for Science and Student Life
The Haskell Center for Science and Student Life opened for the first day of school on August 15. Features include a brand new dining hall - Harden Hall - and a wonderful new STEM and robotics center. The building was dedicated and blessed at a student-focused ceremony on August 19.
Lead donors to the building campaign, Boldly ESJ, were recognized with a special event in Harden Hall on August 25.
“With deepest gratitude we would like to thank our donors to the Boldy ESJ Campaign - the campaign that funded the Haskell Center for Science and Student Life. We can now provide exceptional opportunities for our students because all of our donors shared our collective vision for what this space could be. We are here because of their sacrificial generosity and their spirit of love and giving,” said The Rev. Adam Greene, Head of School. “We’d like to especially thank the Haskell family for their generosity in all they have given to our school, not only this building, but also many other projects they have been involved in - every capital campaign the school has held going back to 1978.”
The Haskells’ three children attended Episcopal, along with multiple grandchildren. Joan and Preston have been active volunteers, serving on the Board and involved as parents in different areas of school leadership since the 1970s.
Co-chairs Amy Harris Wacaster ‘94 and Alex Graham ‘00, both current parents and current Trustees, led the Boldly ESJ Campaign.
