Parents' Guild

A Welcome from Parents' Guild

Building Community. Supporting Excellence.

From welcoming new families to celebrating our graduating seniors—and every milestone in between—Parents' Guild is proud to help foster the traditions, connections, and experiences that make Episcopal so special.

As the primary parent organization of the Episcopal School of Baton Rouge, Parents' Guild strengthens the partnership between families and the school through engagement, volunteerism, and fellowship. We bring families together, support and celebrate our outstanding faculty and staff, coordinate volunteers, and help enhance the Episcopal experience for every student.

One of the greatest gifts our families share is their time. There are many ways to get involved, whether it's volunteering at an event, serving as a Tray Helper, supporting our faculty, joining a committee, or helping behind the scenes. Every effort makes a difference.

While many know Parents' Guild for the events we host, our impact extends far beyond them. Through the generosity and participation of Episcopal families, we help bring faculty Wish List projects to life, providing innovative classroom resources, fine arts and literacy initiatives, campus improvements, and student experiences that enrich learning across all divisions. By supporting opportunities that nurture students spiritually, intellectually, morally, physically, and artistically, we are proud to help advance Episcopal's mission of developing the whole child.

We hope every family finds a meaningful way to connect through Parents' Guild. Some of our favorite moments at Episcopal have come while volunteering alongside other parents, cheering on our students, and getting to know the incredible faculty and staff who care for our children each day. Those experiences have deepened our connection to the school and created friendships that have enriched our own families' Episcopal journey.

Thank you for being part of the Episcopal family. It is an honor to serve as your Parents' Guild Co-Presidents, and we look forward to partnering with you as we continue building community and supporting excellence together. We hope you'll join us this year.

Warmly,

Holly Campesi & Erica Gaynor
Co-Presidents, Parents' Guild
