A shadow day is the best way for a prospective student to explore what it is like to be a Golden Lion. Shadow day sign up is through Ravenna and only available to students in the eighth grade or older. We designate some shadow days for specific schools sending a large number of their 8th grade students in order to minimize disruption to their academic calendar.

- Attire: We ask that students wear their current school uniform if applicable. Otherwise, please have them attend in business casual attire.
- Materials & Lunch: In case your student attends a class where they are taking a test or quiz, we ask that shadow students bring a book with them. We provide lunch! Students will choose from the menu offered by Sage Dining in our cafeteria.
