October 4, 2024 | Grandparents & Special Friends Day
This year for Grandparents and Special Friends Day "We're Going Places!". While our program and offerings will all take place on campus, this year's theme highlights the support and love of grandparents and special friends and how they encourage our students to dream big, travel far, and reach for their goals. We are excited to welcome you on Friday, October 4, at 9:00 a.m. in the Championship Gym for a special all-school program featuring performances from students in all three divisions. Following the program there will be a reception in the Dining Hall and time for you to experience the campus.

GET INVOLVED
Grandparents and friends play a special role in the development of a student’s learning and maturation. We are honored to have you, and your grandchildren, as part of our Episcopal Collegiate family. We would love to connect with you and invite you to support our students in a variety of ways. To learn more about events on campus, view our online calendar here.
2024-25 Episcopal Collegiate Annual Fund
Support of the Episcopal Collegiate Annual Fund ensures that every Wildcat has a distinctive experience during their time here. This yearly need funds the ongoing investments in facilities, faculty, and programs that set the Episcopal experience apart.
Each year, the Annual Fund supports the School's operating budget, as the actual cost of educating one student is around $6,195 more than the average cost of tuition. That gap is funded by the School's generous endowment and the Annual Fund.
A gift to the Annual Fund impacts every aspect of student life from the hallways to the locker bays and from the classrooms to the court. By supporting the Annual Fund, you make a significant difference in the lives of all of our students.
