This year’s Middle School Science Fair was a showcase of creativity, innovation, and curiosity! Our students amazed the school community with their research and experiments, demonstrating both scientific knowledge and problem-solving skills.

This year, Episcopal Day celebrated Lunar New Year with a series of vibrant and engaging celebrations throughout the entire month, filled with learning, culture, and tradition!

We’re proud to share that our Middle School students truly shone in this year’s fall play, Murder’s in the Heir. From acting to stage management, lighting, and more, every aspect of the production was brought to life by our talented students.

We are thrilled to announce that our 2024 issue of Our Day – Little Voices, Big Impact – has been recognized with two prestigious awards in the design category!

At Episcopal Day School, our Chapel Talks serve as a cornerstone of our community, and a particularly significant part of this tradition is our Eight Grade Chapel Talk Program.

Episcopal Day on Ice brought our community together in downtown San Mateo’s Central Park for a festive tradition celebrating connection, joy, and the vibrant spirit of our city. 

On November 14, Episcopal Day School gathered at Central Park for our annual Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day, honoring the courage and legacy of Ruby Bridges.

As an Episcopal school grounded in inclusion and inquiry, we intentionally celebrate and learn about holidays that our students celebrate, while also giving students the tools to understand different identities and cultures. We know that building a deep sense of belonging in community does not happen accidentally; it happens through purposeful education and celebration.  

At Episcopal Day, we steadfastly believe that our math program should create thinkers, not calculators. It was our pleasure to share with our families some of the ways we bring that belief to life.

As they move through their years in our school, our students themselves surpass us in this knowledge. There is no greater pride for us than watching them become reflective, aware self-advocates, learning how they think and how they learn. We know they will carry this confident self-knowledge and curiosity with them long after they leave Episcopal Day School.

We are thrilled to introduce Dr. Brandon Kraft as our new Associate Head of School for Academics

At Episcopal Day School, service to others isn't just a core value—it's the heart of our community and a reflection of the Episcopal values that guide us in our mission. Throughout the 2023-2024 school year, our students embarked on an array of service learning and community service projects that not only enriched their educational experiences but also made a tangible difference in the world around them.

As the 2023-2024 school year came to a close, we found ourselves reflecting on an incredible journey marked by growth, achievement, and a deep sense of community. Our inspiring eighth grade class truly showcased the value of our program, reminding us of the profound impact of a connected community and a program focused on developing future agents of change.

May Day at Episcopal Day is always something special, and this year’s celebration was an absolute blast! We had so much fun honoring our amazing eighth graders and welcoming spring with joy, laughter, and dance!
