What is an Episcopal School: It does mean something

School Worship that is creative, inclusive, draws fully upon the liturgical resources

  • f The Episcopal Church, and is a regular part of school life for all faculty and

students. Community Life, in which reflection, prayer, and matters of the spirit are honored and cultivated and the physical, mental, and emotional health of all are supported and nurtured. Religious Formation and Study that is meaningful, academically substantive, and age-appropriate; and in teaching the Christian tradition, fosters dialogue with other faith traditions. Social Justice, which is the integration of the ideals and concepts of equity, justice, and a just society throughout the life of the school; the embracing and honoring of diversity; and the inclusion of community service and service learning as an integral part of the life of the school.

Episcopal Schools

By weaving these principles into the very fabric of the school’s overall life, Episcopal schools ensure that their missions are built on the sure foundation of a Christian love that guides and challenges all who attend our schools to build lives of genuine meaning, purpose and service in the world they will inherit.

Our Mission

The mission of Saint Andrew's Episcopal School is to offer an enriched curriculum within the tradition and values of the Episcopal Church. We aim to educate the whole student, developing as fully as possible the intellectual, spiritual, physical, and social capacities of each student. Our school’s values, philosophy, curriculum, culture, and outcomes can all be expressed in a single word - wholehearted. It captures the essence of the values shared by our faculty, staff, students, parents, and alumni.

Our Episcopal faith...

is anchored in inclusivity and love as guided by the National Association of Episcopal Schools. One of its hallmarks is to celebrate the diversity of beliefs and perspectives around life’s questions, no matter one's

  • traditions. Human reason and critical thinking in the pursuit
  • f knowledge are valued as a means to grow deeper in our

spiritual journey. Episcopal schools cultivate a strong sense of ethics and develop agents of change through all aspects of the student experience.

Words of wisdom from a few experienced HOS’s

Karan Merry: “Create an admin. team that is dedicated to the school’s mission and community.” Doreen Olesen: Think Like A Rocket Scientist by Ozan Varol

  • Dr. Luis Ottley: “Pace yourself: this is a marathon not a

race.” Josh Stern: “Ask yourself, do you have to move fast or slow.” Coreen Hester: “Stay calm at all times!” The new HOS is modeling being a “non-anxious presence.” Especially during Covid!
