Religion Courses
The academic classes of the Religion Curriculum are designed to provide an intellectually challenging study of scripture, theology, and philosophy. The curriculum offers students the historical background for and the theological foundation of Christian faith. In addition, it gives them the tools necessary to articulate their own theological and ethical positions for current and future application, preparing students both “for college and for a significant life thereafter” in line with the Mission of EHS.

Episcopal High School uses the semester grading system, whereby each student receives a grade at nine weeks and another at eighteen weeks, the end of the semester. For yearlong courses, the end-of-the-year grade, a reflection of the two semesters, is the only grade recorded on the transcript. Effort grades of S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory) will be given for each nine-week grading period.
