Our Vision for Your Education
Our 150+ course curriculum provides an outstanding liberal arts and sciences preparation. In small classes, we gather to conquer questions and dissect potential solutions. We engage in close conversations where anyone's idea can be voiced and everyone’s voice will be heard. We explore a wide curriculum that evolves and adapts as the world shifts. Together, we pursue knowledge and develop the skills we need to make the best use of it. Along the way, we make each other better.
Our Academic Philosophy
The academic day is structured to allow ample time for electives and study periods. Students must earn at least 23 credits in four years to graduate, including credits for afternoon programs. EHS also offers more than 70 Honors and Advanced courses.

The March Library collection consists of approximately 15,000 physical items, supplemented by online databases, digital books, and a library of streaming films that can be accessed by students both on and off campus.Access to information and the skills to evaluate it are key to success in academic research. These skills will serve students beyond the classroom and into today’s information-driven society. The David H. March Library’s professional staff, with the assistance of the School’s extensive collection, seek to guide students in acquiring such skills. The mission of the March Library is to serve as the vital and dynamic intellectual center of academic life at Episcopal High School, and to inspire in the community a lifelong love of reading and learning. As educators, the library staff teaches effective information-gathering and evaluating skills necessary for college and beyond.

The library staff assists students and teachers alike in navigating the constantly changing world of technology and information trends.
