I’ve been doing really good these days. I’ve made a lot of friends and we went to the state fair together. I watch the football game every Friday. My friends and I even have a little tradition together, having dinner every Friday before the game.
I got a 90 on my first history test. I enjoy reading the history materials which help me understand better about the foundations and development of this nation. Learning history helps me know more about America and also gives me a new idea of thinking.
I also joined some really interesting clubs. Model U.N., Diversity, Breakfast, Community Service, and Environmental Awareness. I’ve done so many things that I’ve never experienced before. It’s such a great opportunity for me to embrace challenges, to grow, and to learn about another culture and in the same time to share mine.
My host family is great! They look me to Austin for Labor Day weekend, cook different and special meals for me to try, and make me feel part of the family. We are now planning our trip to Chicago during Thanksgiving. I am really excited about it.
Everything is awesome here. The teachers, friends and families are so nice. They help me a lot in my study and in my new life. I really love it here!

Welcome!
Welcome to the Episcopal School of Dallas Blogsite! ESD is teeming with various student leadership opportunities. Whether it be serving on our School Council, editing our literary magazine, managing a sports team, or creating a club of your own, ESD gives you the opportunity to pursue whatever interests you.
As a student leader at ESD, I oversee volunteer activities, school dances, pep rallies and other student run events. With classes, homework, and college applications piling up, I sometimes feel stressed, but in the end it is always worth it when we raise money for a worthwhile cause or discover another shining star among the student body in our talent show.
ESD is a great place to be—a community to help you discover your own talents and abilities inside the classroom and out. We hope our blogsite will help you get to know us better through a wide variety of viewpoints and visions gained from the experiences of our own students. I invite you to visit our campus soon!
