We draw upon the rich historical, cultural, and scientific resources of the nation’s capital to extend learning beyond the classroom. Our 100-percent-residential community helps to build lifelong friendships among students and creates an environment where teachers are a vital part of each student’s daily experience. Founded in 1839, EHS, an independent, coed, 100% boarding high school serving a diverse community of students who come from across the country & around the world, challenges students to grow through our time-honored college preparatory education. Episcopal strives to prepare young people to become discerning individuals with the intellectual and moral courage to lead principled lives of leadership and service to others.
