Episcopal Freshman Wins Good Deed Contest
Maria Boyance ’13 was awarded a Toshiba laptop computer by Jacksonville Periodontist Dr. Gary Perlman for winning a Good Deed essay contest. The contest was open to students under age 18 in Duval and Clay Counties. Maria’s essay was selected as the best of 50 entries. Perlman held the contest as a way to move the emphasis from a society that “seems to be living in a ‘me and I’ kind of culture.” Perlman said of Maria, “our winner showed a sense of caring and maturity seldom seen in a ninth grader. Her fine character is a tribute to her family, classmates, and school.”

Episcopal Summer
Summer programs at Episcopal High School are all about fun and self-improvement. The classes give students the opportunity to enjoy the subject matter at a relaxed pace, with fewer students and greater teacher attention. The camps stress the love of the game, whether it be pole-vaulting or dancing. The safe, secure environment at Episcopal allows students and parents to focus on what is important: improving academics, athletics, and fine arts skills. The School prides itself on being a small, close-knit community that welcomes anyone to join us. To learn more about Episcopal Summer 2010, click here.
