Dear Munnerlyn Campus Families,

Greetings and happy summer! Planning for the 2025-2026 school year is well underway as we prepare to welcome you all back in August after a fun-filled summer break. Please review the summer checklist below to help you prepare and ensure a smooth start to the new school year:

  • Upper School (Grades 9-12):
    Student courses are confirmed and can be viewed in the My ESJ Student and Parent portals on the Course Enrollment Document. If you have questions or concerns, please email Ms. Day, days@esj.org. Email enables all questions/concerns to be tracked and allows us to respond more efficiently than voicemail.

Reminder: First Senior Application Kickoff Tomorrow (August 2)
Lorem ipsum

The first senior Application Kickoff is tomorrow, August 2, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in the Gooding Boardroom (library conference room). We look forward to kicking things off with the class of 2026!

All seniors must attend one of four sessions offered Aug 2, Aug 11, Aug 16, or Aug 23. Each session will take place in the library conference room from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Seniors who have not yet signed up for a session need to complete the Application Kickoff RSVP (available only through the student’s esj.org account) to reserve a seat. Students may change their date through the same link if their plans change.

About Application Kickoff

Episcopal College Counselors meet with all seniors to ensure a smooth start to the application season and senior year. 

We’ll revisit essential tools, including the Common Application and Scoir, ensuring each senior understands the necessary policies, procedures, and requirements.

In addition, seniors will complete important authorization forms, update their college lists, learn about required procedures, and set up individual meetings with their college counselor.

Throughout the year, we (college counselors) guide and support seniors with every aspect of the admissions process – from balancing the college list to brainstorming essay responses to reviewing applications and essays prior to submission.

Application Kickoff is one of many programs Episcopal College Counseling hosts each year to ensure that students are well-informed and well-supported.
