2022-23 was a historic year for Episcopal High School as we launched the Courage Campaign, opened three new buildings, and continued to advance the core tenets of the School that have been a part of our collective DNA since 1839. These moments would not have been possible without our generous donors, and we look forward to continuing to make history with your steadfast support.

HEAD OF SCHOOL q

Reflecting on this past year, I am incredibly proud of the efforts of so many to take the quality of our students’ experiences in all areas of school life to new heights. A mixture of our faculty’s innovative uses of Washington’s impressive resources, an enhanced focus on the residential component of student life, an exciting expansion of our support for health and wellness initiatives, and outstanding student leadership both in and outside the classroom combined to make the 2022-23 school year one for the history books. All of these special ingredients were made possible by the dedication and generosity of all in our school family — faculty and staff, students, parents, alumni, and special friends alike. Our McCain-Ravenel Center guided our faculty to maximize the benefits of our newly organized weekly schedule and to incorporate new resources across the greater Washington area. Classroom teachers brought our academic program to life with over 600 distinct learning moments outside our gates and numerous visiting speakers. These journeys brought rich academic content to life, reinforced the qualities we associated with intellectual and moral courage from our Portrait of a Graduate, and connected our students with impressive leadership examples. Having an opportunity to initiate the public phase of our Courage Campaign and celebrate the remarkable success of our initial leadership phase allowed us to highlight the transformational impact of these campaign funds thus far. With the campaign making possible the opening of two new smaller dormitories this past year and the renovation of interior spaces across all our other dorm facilities, we were reminded of just

how important and powerful our residential experience can be. Our new deButts Health & Wellness Center offered our students cutting edge support and inspired an enhanced approach to wellness initiatives and health education in areas that maximize student achievement and well being. In the midst of these campus and programmatic enhancements, our seniors also brought an inspired level of leadership and commitment in all areas of school life. Having emerged fully from the pandemic, these seniors focused on the power of community and highlighted our core values of honor, trust, respect, and kindness. They fostered a remarkable level of spirit on the campus which was bolstered by exciting moments like our football team’s IAC championship and victory over Woodberry as well as our theater program’s outstanding production of “Beauty and the Beast” last winter. With so much having been accomplished this past year, I am reminded how fortunate we are to have such a devoted and supportive school family. The enthusiasm and generosity of our Board of Trustees, alumni, current and former parents, and so many other friends of the School play a crucial role in bringing to life all our exciting innovations and enhancements. I remain grateful for all who have helped Episcopal continue to be the very special community we all love and admire. Thanks again for all that you do for Episcopal.

ASSISTANT HEAD FOR ADVANCEMENT q

“There is true beauty in the constant pursuit of growth,” said Head Monitor Sydney Hopkins ’23, as her class’s journey together on The Holy Hill drew to a close. I’m fairly certain Sydney did not have the School’s advancement office in mind when addressing the full EHS community. It is indeed, however, “the pursuit of growth” that drives our efforts in support of Episcopal’s mission and community each and every day. Ultimately, it is philanthropy that provides our gifted teachers and hardworking students the tools that make extraordinary growth and achievement possible. Philanthropy fuels connections with the myriad resources of Washington, D.C., and in 2022-23, it supported over 600 class expeditions into the metro area. When students returned to campus, it was to dormitories that were less crowded, where dorm parents engaged with them even more powerfully thanks to two beautiful new residential buildings and a resulting lower student-to-faculty ratio on all dorms. And perhaps nothing speaks to the impactful intersection of philanthropy and growth as perfectly as the new deButts Health & Wellness Center, a building in which we double down on our commitment to student wellbeing that was dedicated by Simone and Tench Coxe ’76 in honor of Shelley and Boota deButts ’76 and Hunter deButts ’47 and of “a lifelong friendship that began the day two freshmen met as roommates in the fall of 1972.” Whether it’s a visiting speaker in Pendleton Hall, lab equipment in Baker Science Center, helmets in Hummel Bowl, counseling sessions in the deButts Health & Wellness Center, or professional development in Sperry Lecture Hall, the list of what comes together to help our

students grow and achieve at their very best is endless, and it is your generosity that makes it possible. With your participation, giving to the Roll Call reached a record $3.56 million — over $7,400 per student, exceeding our goal by 2% and providing 9% of the School’s operating revenue. We are thankful for each of the 2,620 gifts to the Roll Call and the tremendous efforts of our hosts and volunteers. It was beyond exciting to publicly launch Courage: The Campaign for Episcopal with events across the country, rolling out the priorities and planting the seeds that will take philanthropy at EHS to a whole new level so that it, in turn, can do the same for our school. Giving to Courage has been remarkable to date, and the impact can be felt across campus. This and future generations of Episcopal students are the beneficiaries, and we could not be more grateful to all who have helped bring to life much of what the Courage Campaign aspires to achieve. On behalf of all of us at The High School who continually strive to advance our mission and deliver an experience of growth and preparation so that our graduates can be courageous forces for good in the world, I thank you for your generosity and commitment. It is an honor to share your devotion to EHS as we work together to ensure its vibrant future.

CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER q

The 2022-23 school year marked a return to normalcy in all areas of Episcopal’s daily life. We no longer had to spend our time and resources dealing with the pandemic. Instead, our energy could be spent on developing young men and women into people with moral and intellectual courage. As I look back on the 2022-23 school year, I am thankful for so many things. We moved into three new buildings which were started during the pandemic and completed under budget. I want to acknowledge our Board who made the right decision in 2019 to build all three buildings at the same time and to finance them when the cost of money was at historical lows. The new North and West dormitories have raised the bar for amenities on campus and have become the new standard for residential life. The new deButts Health & Wellness Center has also raised the bar on our ability to serve all of the health and wellness needs of our students. Given the current nationwide crisis for teen healthcare, bringing this building online was very fortuitous. In addition to this excitement that was happening in the center of campus, progress was being made in other areas on campus.

We committed to a long-term solar installation that will go on the roofs of Flippin Fieldhouse and Hershey Athletics Center. We expect this installation to provide about 10% of the campus’s electricity. In addition, a smaller solar installation will go on the new Class of 1976 Golf Center which is just getting underway adjacent to the Goodman Squash Courts facility. Finally, the construction of North and West dorms gives us the opportunity to systematically de-densify our older dorms and renovate them as needed. The planning for this large-scale, multi-year endeavor is underway. Without the generous support of our alumni, parents, and friends, we would not have been able to accomplish any of the things I have mentioned above. You are all critical to the continued success of Episcopal and we are eternally grateful.

Meet Our Donors JUN CHEN AND JIANLI GUO P’24 Dea Guo ’24 began her Episcopal experience as a virtual student beaming into classes from Beijing, China during the Covid-19 pandemic. While not ideal, the new Episcopal family could tell early on that The High School was the right place for Dea. “The teachers were so willing to support her even though they were far apart,” said Chen of that initial 7,000-mile distance between Dea and the school she would soon call her second home. During the pandemic, teachers would meet with Dea outside of their usual office hours to ensure Dea would not have to stay up too late in China, a small and simple gesture that Guo and Chen still remember fondly. “We felt so reassured that the teachers care for every student, and we knew that Dea would be well cared for at Episcopal,” the couple recounted. Because of Dea’s unique start to Episcopal, Chen and Guo are determined to support Episcopal teachers, just as they have supported Dea. As early donors to Courage: The Campaign for Episcopal, the current parents designated their support to the campaign’s fifth pillar, which invests in our commitment to a world class faculty and staff. The teachers are also a large reason why the two parents do their best to come to campus from China as often as they can. According to Chen, “We come to greet them and just say thank you. We really appreciate the support system.” During Dea’s time at Episcopal, Chen and Guo have taken care to support the School in other ways. They have introduced other Chinese families to Episcopal, shared their own positive experiences, connected with current, past, and future parents through WeChat, and acted as translators when needed. They do this because other families once did it for them. Chen and Guo first heard of Episcopal through friends in Beijing who had also sent children to The Holy Hill. While the prospect of Dea being so far from home was daunting to them, they knew that the caliber of education and the strength of the relationships would make the distance worth it. Fresh from touring the top colleges on the East Coast, the family is excited about what her senior year holds as Dea contemplates her next step. “It’s not easy as parents,” Chen said in closing, “but the teachers take good care of our children.”

The Roll Call — Episcopal’s annual fund — is a testament to teamwork. Thank you, EHS alumni, families, and friends, for once again answering the School’s call for support! We are beyond grateful to each of the 2,620 individual donors who collectively invested $3.56 million to empower Episcopal students during the 2022-23 school year. There are so many causes worthy of your time and treasure, and you decided to join our mission to prepare the courageous, ethical leaders that the world so desperately needs. Every Episcopal student benefits from your generosity and from your example. Thanks to the high participation of our community, we exceeded our fundraising goal by 2% and positioned the School’s leadership to continue investing in the day-to-day magic of Episcopal High School. We could not ask for a better team.

Alumni Giving

1,950 alumni gave over $1.91 million to the Roll Call during the 2022-23 school year. These donors represent 42% of our alumni body, an incredible testament to the enduring power of the Episcopal experience and the sense of shared responsibility to pass it on to the next generation. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the 112 alumni who serve as class chairs and do the crucial work of encouraging class participation in the Roll Call. Their work ethic, passion for the School’s mission, and strong relationships with classmates are the key to our fundraising success. A little bit of that EHS competitive spirit doesn’t hurt, either!

Meet Our Donors HENRY BARRETT ’18 The enthusiasm Henry Barrett ’18 has about his Episcopal experience is contagious. He describes his high school years as “incomparable” — from the access campus provided him to Washington, D.C., to the life-changing bonds he formed with faculty members, to the generous community spirit that defined his EHS years. “Not everyone gets the opportunity in their high school experience to live next to the nation’s capital,” Barrett remarks. He recalls visiting monuments, museums, and restaurants in Washington, D.C., as highlights of his time at Episcopal. As a student, he was also able to complete an internship with the office of the late Senator John McCain ’54.

Henry Barrett ’18 (second from left) with his family at Episcopal’s 2018 Baccalaureate service, where his father gave the keynote address.

His ability to complete this internship was made possible not only through EHS connections but also through the support of faculty members who went above and beyond to help him get a foot in the door and give him a place to stay within commuting distance to Washington over the summer. Barrett also recalls the mentorship of his advisor Vincent Hodge ’89, who did everything from miraculously getting Barrett a graphing calculator before a precalculus test after his went missing to supporting him after his grandmother’s death. “You can’t possibly find that same level of connection without being there, living there in the moment, at school,” according to Barrett. The fact that his brother followed in his footsteps to EHS was “a foregone conclusion,” Barrett says. The number of doors he felt Episcopal opened for him made the decision easy for his brother and his family. If he could give advice to current EHS students, he would tell them to “latch on to every opportunity that comes your way, and explore new things — try out a new class, sport, or afternoon activity, or get engaged in something totally different in terms of your D.C. experience.” As a former financial aid recipient, Barrett believes that giving to EHS in order to ensure access to financial aid is crucial to ensure a diversity of backgrounds and opinions at the School. Without robust financial aid, all students’ experiences would suffer. “It’s not just students who are on financial aid who would be at a loss,” Barrett says, “but the students who aren’t on financial aid would really lose a perspective that is the reality of our country and of our world. To be siloed from those realities is not conducive to a healthy, functioning society.” Barrett believes that it is important for young alumni to show gratitude for their time at Episcopal — whether that’s by staying connected with classmates, volunteering for the School, or giving to the annual fund. “Being able to consciously make a gift,” in honor of your precious EHS memories, he says, “is pretty powerful for inspiring the next generation of Episcopal students.”

Generations of Support

Thank you to our oldest alumni, our youngest alumni, and everyone in between! 20 of the 41 living alumni who graduated during the 1940s supported the Roll Call during the 2022-23 school year. These men were born a century ago, and the importance of Episcopal’s mission endures. Young alumni Roll Call participation increased by 5% compared to the past two years. Our young alumni — defined as those who graduated in the last 15 years — play an important role in building the School’s future, and we are thrilled to see them paying it forward as they proceed through college and into careers. Younger donors have power in numbers, and small donations add up to a big impact. Our young alumni are stretching to be as generous as they can, though! The Young Alumni Leadership Society grew to 48 members, who collectively donated an astounding $63,630. The Callaway Loyalty Society, named in honor of longtime faculty member Patrick Henry Callaway, continues to be the bedrock of philanthropy at Episcopal. The 1,150 members represent 62% of our alumni donors. All have given to the EHS Roll Call for at least five consecutive years, but often for decades! Mr. Callaway would surely be proud.

Meet Our Donors LELA GANT ’96 When thinking back to her time at Episcopal, Lela Gant ’96 remembers the camaraderie the most. She treasures memories like snowball fights on rare snow days, talent shows and hangouts with classmates in Bryan Library, and movie nights with friends in faculty houses. Those moments, she says, built lifechanging and lifelong friendships with the small group of girls who made up Episcopal’s first classes of coeducation. Gant takes immense pride in being a member of one of the early coeducational classes at Episcopal. Being a student during a time of great change was a unique experience, and she is excited that the School has reached an equal enrollment of girls and boys and continues to welcome a diverse student body each year. Through the changes, Gant notes that “Episcopal has remained consistent at teaching students the same values, no matter if they were there in 1993 or 2023.” Today, Gant strives to live courageously, faithfully, and joyfully, according to the teachings of the School’s Latin motto — fortiter, fideliter, feliciter. “Episcopal is who I am,” she explains. Gant has remained an engaged member of the school community as an alumna, working as a member of the Advancement Office shortly after college. Serving in this role brought a new perspective to the student-mentor relationships that she cherished at EHS. “Many people invested in me and supported me when I was at Episcopal, so working there was my opportunity to pour into the students who needed me,” she says. “There are students I met when I worked at Episcopal I am still close to now. It’s a community, but we turn into family.” Now working at American University in Washington, D.C., Gant has continued to dedicate her time and energy to The High School. She is a current member of the Advisory Council, a founding member of the Black Alumni Network, and a frequent volunteer for the Advancement Office. Gant’s spirit of volunteerism is in part inspired by her mother, Lenora, who is now serving her second term as a member of the Board of Trustees. Lenora also served as a member of the School History Working Group and is currently the chair of the Memorial Working Group. “For me and for my family, it’s always been about knowing the impact that Episcopal made on my life,” Gant says, “which is why my mom and I have poured so much into Episcopal now in our adult lives.” As a new mom, Gant hopes her family’s connection to Episcopal will continue to strengthen and grow. “I’ve made sure to bring Clark up to campus,” she says of her daughter’s early exposure to Episcopal. “It’s important for Clark to understand why I am the way that I am, why Grandma is the way that she is, and why we feel that it’s important to invest in education.” Inspired by her fond memories of her time as a student and by the camaraderie she continues to feel as part of the Episcopal alumni community, Gant is a stalwart member of the Callaway Loyalty Society. According to Gant, “Staying involved is so important. I don’t care how little or big I can give, I just want to be consistent. Whether it’s your time or your financial investment, you have to start giving in some capacity when a place is important to you.”

Meet Our Donors CAULLEY AND ALEX DERINGER ’82 P’23 ’26 On paper, the Episcopal High School that Caulley Deringer ’82 knew as a student in the late 1970s and early 1980s and the Episcopal he and his wife Alex know now as parents are very different. Tennis courts stood on the part of campus where Callaway Chapel and Henderson Hall, housing Hummel and McGuire Dormitories, are now located; students attended fifteen seated meals per week, all in coat and tie; and the school is now coed. Yet when the Deringer boys, Caulley ’23 and Bowen ’26, became interested in boarding schools, Caulley knew that Episcopal remained an extraordinary place. “The basic principles of Episcopal have always been there,” Caulley says of the core tenets of the School — from rigorous academics, developing leaders, teaching moral courage and of course living with the Honor Code. Their sons grew up hearing about the importance and meaning of the Honor Code from their dad, “so much so that they got tired of me talking about it,” jokes Caulley. The Deringers are proud to maintain a connection with a school that has served their family well, especially as the institution has progressed into the 21st century. “We appreciate how the school has also transformed to become more in touch with what society is today, which is a much more diverse and complex world, which is one more reason we thought it was a perfect fit for us,” Caulley notes.

The Deringer family (Caulley ’82, Bowen ’26, Alex, and Caulley ’23) recently celebrated Caulley’s commitment to play lacrosse at the University of Virginia.

As parents, Caulley and Alex have seen how the School helps students prosper not only academically but also athletically, artistically, and socially. Reflecting on the time that his eldest son spent at Episcopal, Caulley says, “He had wonderful mentors as advisors, coaches, and teachers that put him on the right path, and I think the school recognized the personal goals he was trying to accomplish and really helped make that happen for him.” The Deringers are equally excited to see how their younger son continues to build meaningful relationships with other students and faculty and fully hit his stride as an EHS student. Because of the experiences of their sons and themselves as community members, Alex says, “Our heart truly does belong to Episcopal.” Caulley and Alex believe that giving back includes much more than monetary gifts. “Everybody in a community, in a school, in an organization has something to offer of value,” she says. The Deringers have done just that — they were senior parent Roll Call chairs in 2022-23, have hosted externships at their commercial real estate and interior design businesses, and held gatherings on behalf of Episcopal at their Alexandria home, among many other instances of volunteering for the School. They have also worked to instill this generous spirit of giving to Episcopal in their children. “We push them each to give a little bit each year,” Caulley explains of instilling the spirit and action of philanthropy in their sons. “They say, ‘Why am I giving money to the school? I’m only fifteen!’ but it’s good to get into the motion and the routine of it. They recognize that the School doesn’t stand on its own just by tuition. The generosity of others in many capacities really makes the School flourish, and I want them to understand that. If you believe in that institution, what it’s done for you, then give something to preserve and enhance its future.”

Current Parent Giving Thank you, EHS parents and families! Without the families who are willing to trust the School with their children and to partner in our ambitious mission, there would be no Episcopal.

Episcopal’s tuition alone is a major investment, and we are humbled and gratified that the vast majority of current families enthusiastically participate in our annual giving program. Philanthropy takes Episcopal from good to great, and our students reap the benefits. In the 2022-23 school year, donations to the Roll Call provided $7,440 of support to each current student. 72% of current families made a gift, and countless parents volunteered their time and talents to help make the school year a success. Thank you for making Episcopal a better school not just for your own children, but for all of their friends, classmates, and teachers as well!

Meet Our Donors BOB COLLIE ’94 AND BRANDON MURPHY Bob Collie ’94 joined Episcopal as a new junior from Houston, Texas. During his sophomore year at home, he started questioning the path many of his hometown peers followed. As he visited boarding schools scattered across the northeast, it was ultimately Episcopal that “felt most like home” to him. The proximity to Washington, D.C., the ease of travel to and from Houston, and the beauty of the campus itself made Episcopal his top choice. When he arrived on campus in the fall of 1992, Collie was assigned to a room on the first floor of Berkeley Dormitory with two roommates. “My mom’s reaction to how the room looked was not good,” he laughed, as the new triple was originally designed as a double. (He ended up in a different room shortly after that.) It was that moment that Collie returned to as he served as chair of the Buildings and Grounds Committee on Episcopal’s Board of Trustees. Since that first day on campus, he has remained passionate about taking care of the School’s campus and facilities so that each student, faculty, and staff member can have the best experience possible, much like he did. “Episcopal was a big deal to me,” Collie remembers fondly. “It really created a shared experience that you just can’t get in a day school.” Despite being at his day school for ten years and Episcopal for only two, Collie says his EHS friendships have continued to thrive throughout his adult life, thanks to such a unique experience living and learning together. While at Episcopal, he continued to lean into his love for technology, running a computer consulting business from the pay phone in Berkeley and lending his expertise to the Computer Studies department as a part-time assistant, work that would lead to his longtime career in tech. An early donor to Courage: The Campaign for Episcopal, Collie also served on the Advisory Council from 2001-03 and 2004-06. He joined the Board of Trustees in 2017 and has served as an integral member of the Finance Committee and chair of the Buildings and Grounds Committee. (See his departing trustee remarks on page 32 to hear about his experience firsthand.) In 2017, Collie used his expertise from his career in tech to serve on the Technology Task Force, which made significant investments in our campus systems and networking under his leadership. Collie has also been a regional event host and a Reunion volunteer, embodying the myriad ways our alumni support the School. Collie’s work on the Board was led by one important question: “What can we do to improve student life?” Throughout his tenure, he highlighted the importance of an endowed fund for capital renewal to support the ongoing maintenance of our facilities. “We shouldn’t constantly have to raise money just to maintain our campus,” according to the former trustee. As the two new dormitories opened to great success in December 2022, Collie noted that we must continue to focus on ensuring that each dorm, along with the rest of our campus buildings, offers great experiences for all students — not just the new ones. Our two new dorms allow EHS to improve the student-to-on-dorm faculty ratio in all ten dormitories and make needed renovations to the rest of the buildings to continue improving the residential life experience for all. Collie and his husband, Brandon Murphy, are new members of Episcopal’s Bell Society by including a Courage Campaign gift in their will. Having seen the impact that planned giving made on key decisions during his time on the Board, Collie better understood how early (or mid) life bequests to EHS could make an outsized impact. “This campus will live longer than all of us,” he says. “And contributions through the Bell Society program allow us to endow that ongoing experience that we got to have here.”

CLASS OF 1976 GOLF CE N T E R

q Episcopal’s new indoor practice golf center will open in the 2023-24 school year thanks to the generous support of Simone and Tench Coxe ’76. The 5,500-square-foot, state-of-the-art building will include:

four practice bays

26

TrackMan 4 Technology in all four bays

two bays with Swing Catalyst System with Dual Motion Plates

10-hole Pro-Putt putting green

24 oversized lockers for individual golf bags

equipment repair and storage room

catering kitchen for events


“The new golf center will be a game-changer for our golf program. The ability to train independently on campus throughout the academic year is invaluable. While students will still have the chance to play on great courses throughout the area, having access to this type of technology on campus positions EHS golfers with opportunities few other scholastic golf programs are able to rival.” Jen Fitzpatrick, director of athletics

“As a golfer who grew up in the Midwest, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to maintain forward progress in golf when you can’t play for several months each year. And while nothing can replace the experience of playing the game outside, Episcopal’s new golf indoor practice facility provides our team with an incredible substitute during the winter season. With access to equipment like TrackMan and SC Force Plates, our players will receive a level of feedback about their swings available only to tour professionals. I can’t wait to break it in this spring!” Charlie Moore, head boys’ varsity golf coach

Departing Trustee Remarks The following Trustees’ tenures ended after the 2022-23 school year. Episcopal thanks them for the many combined years of dedicated service and leadership. ROBERT M. COLLIE III ’94 I came to Episcopal as a new junior from Houston, Texas. My brothers attended day school at home, and I didn’t know anyone on campus when I arrived. Although I was only here for two years and at my day school for ten, it’s Episcopal that I think so fondly of when I look back at my high school years.

I started my tenure on the Board in 2017, just as we began work on the 2018 Strategic Plan. It was such an interesting time to be in Bryan Library with the rest of the Board, working with students, faculty, staff, and alumni to ensure that Episcopal is in a position to thrive for many years to come. Seeing that strategic plan come to fruition with the recent construction of two new dormitories and the deButts Health & Wellness Center has been special, to say the least.

I’ve learned over the years that this school is what it is because of the people — the faculty, the staff, the trustees, the alumni, the parents, and most importantly, the students. They are why we’re all here and continue to give our time and energy to a place we love. It’s been an honor to serve on the Board, and I look forward to making many more memories on campus in the years to come.

CARY LONGSTRETH GOODWIN ’93 My grandfather Howard Goodwin, Sr. ’38 (or “Pop” as we called him) emphasized that one key to a great house was ensuring it had a quality “music and drinking room.” As a young child, I have many fond memories of spending time in the music and drinking room with Pop and my dad, hearing story after story about their formative experiences at Episcopal High School while tunes from Ella

32

Fitzgerald or Louis Armstrong played in the background. Pop would often host my father and his closest friends from EHS including Menard Doswell ’62, Stan Lawrence ’62, Roger Davis ’62, George Logan ’63, and many others. I was always amazed by how much they loved to talk about their time together at Episcopal High School. From a very early stage in my life, I witnessed the bond that exists between friends and family who have experienced EHS life together. While I didn’t fully understand it at the time, I knew it was something I wanted to be a part of.

When I was asked to serve on the Board six years ago, I was truly honored. Many of the above-mentioned friends of my father and grandfather were also Board members. Having had the opportunity to work with mentors and friends, all of whom are 100% focused on the best outcomes for EHS, has meant the world to me. Collaborating with the EHS faculty and witnessing the tireless work of individuals such as Jenner Wood ’70, Kathryn Tyree, Max Chapman ’62, and many others has been humbling. The amount of time, energy, and heart that the Board commits to


serving EHS is remarkable. The challenges that have presented themselves during these last few years have been formidable, including navigating Covid and addressing the complications around the history of the School. In the midst of all this, rallying the support to deliver on a significant capital campaign proved no small feat. The focus required and productivity delivered under the leadership of Charley Stillwell, Lee Ainslie ’82, and Sarah Knutson ’96 has been second to none. During a recent visit for my final Board meeting, I had the pleasure of seeing the completed deButts Health & Wellness Center, beautiful new track facility, and dormitories. These additions to the campus reminded me of my time as a student when we added Callaway Chapel and Hummel Dorm. The facilities are truly state of the art, and walking around campus is quite the experience. Through the leadership

of the administration and the Board, our institution has been able to strike the balance between maintaining core principles while continuing to invest, grow, and evolve. The EHS experience is as progressive for young people today as it has been throughout the School’s history. I’ll never forget sitting with my father’s closest friends in Pop’s music and drinking room when the topic of Episcopal High School going co-ed came up. It was a healthy discussion amongst some of Episcopal’s most loyal alumni. The Board inevitably and thankfully voted in favor of going co-ed, but an interesting side story was that my grandfather was one of the few hold-outs who voted to keep EHS all boys. I share this because I have three daughters and a son and am thrilled that they will all have the opportunity to attend EHS. This critical decision is representative of the role the Board has

played for generations and continues to play in ensuring the School evolves with time. I’m sure Pop is smiling somewhere knowing that the Board ultimately made the right call. Like my time as a student, the six years of service has flown by and I’m closing the book on yet another fulfilling life experience involving Episcopal High School. I take comfort knowing that the institution that has meant so much to us all has emerged from these last few years stronger and more inclusive than ever. I’m truly grateful to have had the opportunity to serve with so many wonderful colleagues and will miss working together. While I am sad to end my tenure on the Board, I am excited for the next chapter as an EHS parent. Thank you to all of the dedicated faculty and staff for everything you do to make EHS such a special place.

J. JÜRGEN TAYLOR ’81 My experience on the EHS Board of Trustees was one of the best experiences of my life. It was an opportunity to see and understand the processes that are involved in managing the past, present, and future of The High School. During my tenure on the Board, I was able to participate in navigating multiple issues that the school confronted and managed successfully. The expertise,

transparency, and devotion of each member resulted in extensive discussions that eventually resulted in cohesive decisions for the betterment of EHS. Although dealing with health issues such as vaping, mold remediation, mental wellness, and the Covid-19 pandemic were quite serious, returning to the Hill for meetings was always delightful. Interacting with the students during lunches, socializing at the Stillwell house with fellow trustees, parents, and faculty, cheering at The Game in Hummel Bowl while chanting “Beat Woodberry,”

speed-walking through frigid winds and rain from Bryan Library to Callaway Chapel, and witnessing the completion of the new dormitories and health center construction projects via the Courage Campaign were very gratifying. The opportunity to return to Episcopal and serve on the Board of Trustees was truly an honor. Stepping down from the Board after serving the past six years, I am confident that the Hill is in good hands and set for continued success moving forward indefinitely.

33


LEAH KANNENSOHN TENNILLE ’01 Serving on this Board has been the absolute greatest honor of my life. I have been challenged and I’ve grown in so many ways. Those of you who knew me during my time here, I’m not sure you expected Leah Kannensohn to be the first trustee from the 2000s, especially with my penchant for demerits. These meetings have also been a blessed reprieve from the deep trenches of motherhood. I always return to Atlanta reenergized (after lots of sleep, good food, and quiet) by my time on The Holy Hill.

34

My parents dropped a box of my “stuff” off recently. In it, I found my acceptance letter to EHS signed by Mr. Walker. It read, “Leah, all of us here at Episcopal have enjoyed working with you in the admissions process and look forward to a long rewarding association with you and your family. I am certain that Episcopal has a great deal to offer you and that you have much to offer us.” It is incredibly clear to me, though also hard to put into words what Episcopal has “offered” me, I never dreamed that I’d have anything to offer Episcopal. I hope that during my term, I’ve given back even a small portion of what this school has given me. This Board is guiding an institution steeped in intellectual and moral

courage that feels so rare in our world today. The Episcopalian in me cannot end without adding that the work the Board does is holy work. It is shaping the next generation who will make our world a better place. During the confirmation on my last Board of Trustees weekend, we were reminded of the Baptismal covenant which is unique to the Episcopal faith to “strive for Justice and peace for all people, and respect the dignity of every human being.” I am proud of the work EHS has done in recent years to move toward beloved community but there is still much to be done. I pray that the baptismal covenant will continue to serve as our North Star. What a gift it has been to serve Episcopal. God Bless the High School.
