Ribbon Cutting Held to Celebrate the New Episcopal Field House
On Monday, March 9th, 2020 Episcopal celebrated the opening of the new Field House with a campus wide Ribbon Cutting ceremony. Ribbon cutting day had a pep rally feel, complete with Episcopal cheerleaders, dance ensemble and the school's drum corps. Cross Country State Champion James Christian '20 represented current Episcopal athletes on the stage. He was joined by Adele Broussard '19 and Van Hiles '93, who represented alumni athletes. PreK-4 student Isaiah Ricard was also on hand to represent the future of Episcopal athletics.

Significant Growth of Athletic Offerings
Students compete and participate in a wide range of athletic opportunities. Episcopal fields 62 varsity and sub-varsity teams in Upper School and Middle School. From Middle School cross country to Upper School weightlifting and
soccer. . .from softball and volleyball to football and wrestling there is a variety of offerings for girls and boys. Students can participate in activities that coincide with their personal interests, skill levels, and talents.
Extensive Physical Education Offerings
At Episcopal, physical education is not limited to the playing field. Our instructors play a vital role in the project-based learning activities taking place within the classroom. We also believe physical education is a vital component of a well-rounded education. Thus, we provide physical education five days a week for all three divisions through ninth grade.
Attracting and Retaining Excellent Coaches and Teachers
State-of-the-art facilities matter to coaches and staff. To better accommodate those at the helm of our program, we must provide sufficient office space and designated coaches’ locker rooms. Up-to-date facilities will enhance Episcopal’s ability to continue to attract and retain the best coaches and staff in a competitive market.
Last Athletic Building, Phillips Gym, Was Built in 1982
Our program and student participation has matured and expanded since the original athletic facilities were constructed. To stay in step with today’s student athletes we must provide the latest equipment in a modern, functional setting. Student-athlete and general student interest will be enhanced with upgraded facilities.
Over 80% of Middle and Upper School Students Participate in Interscholastic Sports
Episcopal students excel in academics and athletics. The lessons learned on the field, track or court open new paths to understanding in the classroom and new opportunities for college and beyond.
