Shadow Day: 1st - 11th grade

Are you interested in a classical education for your child?

Would you like to see classical teaching “in action?”

Come visit our classrooms on a Spring Shadow Day for Grades 1-11! Your children can experience what it’s like to attend school at Seven Oaks.

This semester, we have scheduled two mornings for prospective students to step inside classrooms, “shadow” a student ambassador the whole time, sit at their own desks, and follow along with teachers’ lessons!

Reserve a space for each student in grades 1-11 below

Tuesday, January 30 -7:50-10:30 a.m.

Tuesday, February 20 -7:50-10:30 a.m.

What happens on Shadow Day?

First, Dr. Stephen Shipp, Headmaster, will welcome families and students all together.

Next, each visiting student will be partnered with Seven Oaks Student Ambassadors who will accompany them all morning. Shadowing students will be matched with Ambassadors in their own current grades (1st through 11th grade).

Teachers will welcome the student visitors in each classroom. They will invite the shadowing students to participate in the day’s lessons, according to their own comfort level.

Then, Dr. Shipp will give parents an in-depth introduction to the classical curriculum and answer your questions about life at Seven Oaks. Finally, you will get to tour the school and see the classrooms where your children are shadowing.

Visiting students are free to wear their regular school clothes. Children who are shadowing in grades 1-8 should bring athletic shoes for physical education and a coat & gloves for outdoor recess. Children visiting in grades 1-2 should also bring a mid-morning snack.
