Welcome from the Admissions Director

As one of the top Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra private elementary schools, Beaches Episcopal School (BES) has provided children and their families with an outstanding academic experience in a warm and nurturing environment since 1952. The decision of where to build the educational foundation for your child is an extremely important one and we are dedicated to help guide you through this process. We encourage you to take a few minutes to watch our school video and discover what distinguishes Beaches Episcopal School from other top Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra private schools.

Having worked in Admissions at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, I am excited to have the opportunity to be a part of the admissions process at this stage of your child’s life. There are a number of admirable Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach and Ponte Vedra private elementary schools. I can truly appreciate the seriousness of this decision because I am the parent of a rising kindergartner at Beaches Episcopal School as well as the Admissions Director. I am genuinely committed to helping you make the best choice during this exciting and unique experience of choosing a school.

The Admissions process begins with a tour of our Jacksonville Beach campus during which prospective families have the opportunity to observe first hand students and teachers engaged in the Beaches Episcopal School learning process. Our Admissions Packet is full of valuable information including an application, tuition and fee schedule, extended day services, as well as a procedure checklist for each step along the way. We will be happy to provide you with a packet at any time upon request. In addition, all of the information included in the packet is available on our website.

Please contact me in the Admissions Office at (904) 246-2466, ex.133 or by email at hgalloway@beachesepiscopalschool.org to request an Admissions Packet and to schedule a visit of our campus in the near future.
