We are excited to welcome you on Friday, September 29, for Grandparents and Special Friends Day! We will have a special all-school program featuring performances from students in all three divisions, a reception, and time for you to experience the campus.

Please use this link or the button below to register for the event.

Please contact Assistant Head of School, Matt Radtke, or Director of Advancement, Hannah Bryan with any questions you may have.

Grandparents & Special Friends Program (Championship Gym) - 9:30 a.m.

Explore Lower School - 10:30 am 

Upon arrival at the Lower School you will be greeted with an immersive indoor forest created by lower school students. This experience will include artwork by students in PreK through Kindergarten classes, and upon entering the commons you will be treated to an audio / visual installation inspired by Natasha Bowdoin’s “Spring Song” created by students in grades first through fifth. The Forest Walk will conclude with your journey through the Quinn Teaching Gardens, and you will have the opportunity to explore your grandchild’s classroom and meet their teachers. 

Special thank you to Mrs. Saoud, Ms. McSpadden, Mother Curtis, and Mrs. Clark for curating such a special presentation.

Explore Middle and Upper School

Are you ready to be an Episcopal student? Take a walk down memory lane and put your student hat back on. A few members of our stellar faculty will be offering a variety of "demo classes" so you can quite literally get a feel for what our students take part in each day. Demo classes are open to all grandparents and we hope you will take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

As you are touring the campus with your grandchild(ren), please take a few minutes to stop by the Erwin Library, located in the Middle School, to take part in our Broadcast class “Oral History Project”. This is fun opportunity for your grandchild(ren) to interview you about your time in school.

What if I have grandchildren in multiple divisions? 

• We invite you to join your Middle School or Upper School grandchild in the Dining Hall (across from the Championship Gym). From there, we ask that you start your tour in your youngest grandchild’s division. Your elder grandchild will act as your very own Episcopal Collegiate tour guide! More details about offerings following the all-school program will be available soon.
