- 4 Opening Special retreats, sports events, and the friendly atmosphere help make Episcopal the Choice for We're all so close here. 1 recognize practically every face I see on campus. It makes it seem like a big family. These words, said by senior Clare Crespo, probably best sum up the feeling between people at Episcopal High. Says senior Troy Fuhrman, student body president, We're especially trying to promote the feeling of family here. The classes themselves have always been close, he says, but this year he wanted to increase this closeness so that it was felt between classes and even between the high school and the middle school. A sucessful example of this effort is seen in the Big Brother Big Sister program between the seniors and the fifth graders. We want each middle school student to know that he has a friend in the high school. 1 sincerely believe that this program and others like it will really diminish the gap between the middle school and the high school. In the same vein is the advisor advisee program between faculty and students. In this program each student has a faculty member he can turn to if he so desires. This way students feel like they have friends in high places. Communication between the students and the administration is also aided by the newly-formed Headmaster's Senate, which lets students know why decisions and changes are made. Thus, misunderstanding in the school is drastically cut down. Through the various programs at Episcopal, students feel close to both their classmates and teachers alike. They can turn to either if they need to. It is this closeness and warmth that adds to Episcopal's personality.
