In At Least One Of Our Nine Athletic Offerings

Good Shepherd Episcopal School is an outreach of The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd and enjoys a healthy and fruitful relationship with the church. As an Episcopal school, we have a reverence for faith and reason along with a sense of duty to serve others rooted in the Episcopalian tenets, but inclusive of all beliefs and backgrounds.

The connection of our spirituality is Chapel, a place, program, and sanctuary for students, faculty, and staff of all beliefs and backgrounds. Chapel is where our entire community comes together to nurture the spiritual beings we are and to encourage one another on our journeys of faith.

Our Christian faith and values explain why we do some of the things we do - not just why we start our day with prayer or have chapel, but why we try to forge a meaningful community or take on acts of service and social justice. All of that comes out of our understanding of what it means to be God’s people in the world. And those tenets we share with other faith traditions include our belief that:

• Everyone has inherent worth as a creation of God.

• Every individual shares responsibility for the community to put their best effort forward in all areas.

• Individual moral integrity and a core of common values are essential to every community.

• Mutual respect among people of varied backgrounds and perspectives leads to positive, beneficial relationships.

• Individuals thrive in a safe, nurturing environment where they can be comfortable in taking risks and where they can develop their talents.
