Admission Dates and Events

MS Ambassador

When I was new during new student orientation, there were students to welcome us.
One of them was new the year before and it was very comforting to hear her experience being new.
I'd like to share that with other students and families.

Below is the complete listing of all Admission events.

To find events specific to a grade, follow the divisional campus links above.

Private family tours, both in-person and virtual, are now available for scheduling after an inquiry has been made.
