Visit & Events

Shadow Days are a fantastic way for students to get a taste of what life is like for a Shamrock. We look to welcome about 400 “shadows” a year, and will end up enrolling approximately 75% of the 8th grade students who spend a day with us!

Transfer applicants are able to join us for a day at the end of November or May, and must submit an application and transcript prior to their visit.

Our Shadow Days run from 8 AM to 1:30 PM. After a tour of our facilities (parents are encouraged to join) students attend class with a host, eat lunch (provided), and conclude the day with an Admissions Office interview.

Space is limited, and registration is required. You will receive an email confirmation with all instructions for the day.

In addition to Shadow Days, we offer the chance for families to take an individual tour during most school days starting between 9 AM and 2:15 PM.  Registration is required.

Walkabout Wednesdays are also available to accommodate families outside of school hours. These group tours are typically held the second Wednesday of each month from 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM. Registration is required.

We also offer scheduled phone calls to go over any general questions you might have, transfer consultations, and financial aid reads.

We know you are busy, and might not be able to make it to campus! We do our best to bring the information to you through a series of online presentations.
