Martha's MessageDear Parents, Thank you for a delightful year. It has been a joy to work with you and your children. Exciting times are ahead as we make the transition to becoming Episcopal School of Jacksonville. We look forward to becoming one school on July 1, 2020. The next two weeks will go by in a hurry as we celebrate many special events. We hope you will be able to attend as many activities as possible because it is by being here on campus that you are able to witness how happy the children are on a daily basis and how committed the teachers are to making each day meaningful.
We hope to see everyone at BES Summer Camp in June and July, and I pray you have a blessed summer!
