BE A SHAMROCK FOR A DAY

SHADOW DAYS

Shadow Days are a great way for students to experience firsthand what it is like to be a Shamrock and get their first dose of our unique and unforgettable Shamrock Pride! Each year in the fall, we offer Shadow Days for current 8th grade boys only. 7th grade boys are invited to Shadow in the spring and are encouraged to return in the fall as 8th graders for a more in-depth day.

During Shadow Days, potential students are paired up with a current Shamrock involved in classes and activities similar to the prospective student’s interests. Sometimes, requests are made regarding a specific shadow partner and we do try to honor those requests. To assure that our shadows have the best experience possible, there is a limited number of Shadow reservations on any given day. Please make your reservation 48 hours in advance.

If you have any questions, visit the Admissions page or contact Joe Cermak ’04, Director of Admissions.
