NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EPISCOPAL

Membership services: naes advances episcopal education and strengthens episcopal schools through essential services, resources, conferences, and networking opportunities on episcopal school identity, leadership and governance, school chaplaincy, racial justice, deib, and the spiritual and professional development of school leaders.

Resources and curriculum: naes provides resources through our published principles of good practice (pgps) around a variety of topics relevant to episcopal school leadership. Naes also publishes brochures and books on the topic of episcopal identity that members can use to come to a deeper understand of the values that make episcopal schools unique. Finally, naes also provides a religious studies curriculum for members as well as character development resources in order to focus on the importance of student leadership. Consulting: through our consulting services, schools are able to access right-priced expertise that goes beyond membership services. This includes on-site board/vestry training, professional development days for faculty, and strategic planning. Outreach: naes also supports the episcopal urban school alliance (eusa) which is a coalition of tuition-free schools serving historically underserved families. Naes provides grant support to eusa schools to support their outreach efforts and to address the unique professional development needs of their staff.
