Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Weekend Dress
A. The dress code for Reunion Weekend is always casual as we greet the summer heat. Slacks or khaki shorts with a button down or golf shirt are appropriate for men, though we do often see alumni who choose to observe the occasion with coat and tie. Women most often wear sundresses or casual pants and tops. 
Q. Spouses/Guests
Spouses or significant others are welcome to join you for the weekend!
Q. Special Needs Assistance

The EHS campus is fully equipped to accommodate attendees’ special needs, including dietary restrictions. Please contact the Director of Events at events@episcopalhighschool.org or 703-933-4079.
