An Episcopal Education
The Harkness Method, used in many humanities classrooms, is an established and cherished way of instruction which fosters students’ curiosity, initiative, personal confidence and problem-solving.
Episcopal’s Health, Safety, and Well-Being effort is a long-term, community-wide program designed to involve and benefit students, parents, and faculty and staff.
At ESJ, we have a great tradition of academic excellence and character formation. Guided by the life and ministry of Jesus, we respect the dignity of all people. Though we are a school in the Episcopal tradition, we welcome students, faculty, and staff from all faith traditions.
Discovering your strengths and challenges are all a part of the balanced experience Episcopal offers students. This journey of personal exploration ultimately cumulates in finding the right college or university.
