8th graders show off their winning National History Day project with Mayor Haslam 

It is important for students to interact with youth from other schools, on local, regional, national and international levels. This is a form of networking that allows students to see what their peers at other schools are doing, exchange ideas and develop respect for other people's ideas.

Besides that, interscholastic activities are fun.

The Episcopal School provides its students many opportunities for interscholastic activity. These include:

• Model United Nations
• YMCA Youth Legislature
• National History Day
• Destination Imagination
• Geography Bee
• Spelling BeeInterscholastic Athletics (see our Athletics Section)
• Outdoor Education outings at Camp Chandler, Camp Cheerio, Camp Kanuga, Space Camp, and others.
