Event Description: Sponsored by the National Association of Episcopal Schools, Episcopal Schools Celebration (ESC) is the annual, week-long celebration of the ministry of the over 1,000 Episcopal schools, Early Childhood Education programs, and school establishment committees, and their sponsoring institutions, throughout The Episcopal Church. Whether it is at school, the parish or cathedral, or at a diocesan-wide service or event, ESC is the time for giving thanks and for proclaiming to the Church and the world the good news that is the ministry of Episcopal schools. Each year, ESC highlights a different aspect of Episcopal school identity and mission through the event's theme, which this school year is Last of All and Servant of All (Mark 9:35). A resource brochure and bulletin insert are available on the Association’s web site.
The National Association of Episcopal Schools is an independently incorporated, voluntary membership organization that supports, serves, and advocates for the vital work and ministry of those who serve over 1,000 Episcopal schools, Early Childhood education programs and school establishment efforts throughout the Episcopal Church. Chartered in 1965, with historic roots dating to the 1930s, NAES is the only pre-collegiate educational association that is both national in scope and Episcopal in character. The Association offers a variety of services, publications, resources, and conferences consonant with its mission and focused principally on Episcopal school identity, leadership and governance, and on the spiritual and professional development of school leaders.
