Board of Trustees
Welcome, and thank you for considering Washington Episcopal School for your child’s educational journey.
As both a WES parent and Chair of the Board of Trustees, I’ve seen firsthand how this community nurtures confident, joyful learners. My son, Henry, started here in PK4, and each year I've watched him grow in character, curiosity, and courage. WES truly prepares students not just for the next grade, but for life.
The Board of Trustees is committed to ensuring that WES remains a place where every child is known, challenged, and supported. We are proud to partner with dedicated faculty and staff to sustain the values, programs, and experiences that make this school so special.
We hope you’ll explore everything WES has to offer and see the difference it can make for your family.
