Message from the Principal

Jesse Benton, Principal

Jesse Benton

I serve as Principal of East Pasco Adventist Academy (EPAA), where I am committed to supporting student growth, strong academics, and Christ-centered character development. I began my career in Seventh-day Adventist education, teaching history at Highland View Academy in Maryland, where I served for nine years before continuing my work in Florida.

At EPAA, my focus is on creating a supportive environment where every student is known, encouraged, and challenged to grow academically, socially, and spiritually. I value the close-knit community that defines our school and believe that strong partnerships between families and educators are essential to student success.

It is a privilege to serve the EPAA community and to work alongside dedicated teachers and families as we prepare students for lives of purpose, leadership, and service.

Proud to be Christian, American, and servants of God

Your child will have fun learning here!
