Episcopal School of Jacksonville dedicates Haskell Center for Science and Student Life

The Episcopal School of Jacksonville (ESJ) recently dedicated the Haskell Center for Science and Student Life.
The building was dedicated and blessed at a student-focused ceremony in August. Lead donors to the building were recognized with a special event in the building’s new Harden Hall dining room, followed by a thank you reception for all leadership donors on all three campuses. The facility also includes a new STEM center.
“We can now provide exceptional opportunities for our students because all of our donors shared our collective vision for what this space could be,” said Head of School Rev. Adam Greene. “We are here because of their sacrificial generosity and their spirit of love and giving.”
The new Haskell Center for Science and Student Life was envisioned as a transformative facility that harmonizes academic rigor with student engagement, providing an environment for scientific exploration and vibrant student life. Designed to foster innovation and collaboration, the building features state-of-the-art science and STEM labs, each equipped with technology and resources that support sustainability initiatives and real-time data collection.
“This building is not just a structure,” said Nihal Haddad Alwakeel, Haskell senior design manager, public facilities. “It is a vibrant ecosystem where students are empowered to explore their passions, develop critical skills, and prepare for the future.”
