History
ESD was founded in 1974 by Dallas-area leaders and Reverend Stephen B. Swann. In 1995, ESD merged with St. Michael's, which allowed the school to offer education beginning at age 3 through 12th Grade. The school is actively recruiting for a new Headmaster. Kim Magee succeeded the position as the interim Head of School after Swann's resignation in 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Let it suffice that in the light of these two facts, namely, that the mind is One, and that nature is its correlative, history is to be read and written.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
