Respect — Appreciation of and esteem for oneself, for others, and for the diversity of opinions and backgrounds at Peddie and in the larger community.
Honesty — A high regard for truth, sincerity in action, and genuine concern for honor and integrity.
Scholarship — Intellectual curiosity, active engagement in learning, and a foundation in the academic disciplines.
Balance — Time for work and play, a mix of mastery and experiment, and attention to mind, body, and spirit.
Courage — The quality that enables students to explore new ideas, to create imaginative solutions, to give and accept help, to make difficult decisions, and to grow into confident, compassionate adults.
Challenging and nurturing Mind, Body, and Spirit, an Episcopal Academy education inspires boys and girls to lead lives of purpose, faith, and integrity.
At The Episcopal Academy, we take a robust approach to Mind, Body, and Spirit, not as discrete activities, but as an holistic approach to educating, nurturing, and developing boys and girls. We do not believe that Mind, Body, and Spirit are competing interests at Episcopal, but rather that the three are clearly inseparable and mutually reinforcing.
The Episcopal Academy is a diverse community of ambitious students, accomplished alumni, and dedicated teachers and staff. Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram to learn more about our school.
