    From Washington Episcopal School

    Washington Episcopal School helps children become kind, confident, and prepared global citizens who are ready to make contributions to their communities. Our curriculum challenges students to embrace academic rigor in an appropriately balanced and supportive environment.

    Our students develop a moral and ethical compass through our virtues program, engaging with values such as courage, humility, and compassion. Through hands-on projects and multiple public-speaking opportunities, our students learn how to take risks and self-advocate, building resilience and leadership.

    Program highlights include our Middle School study trips. Every child explores the geology of Southwest Utah in Grade 6, dives into the history and culture of Italy in Grade 7, and puts their language skills to the test in France or Spain in Grade 8. The best part? There is no additional cost to participate in these trips. They are included in the price of tuition, and every student participates.
