Experience Cardinal Shehan
We invite you to gain a better understanding of what it means to join the Cardinal Shehan School Community!
Visit the Nest
The Cardinal Shehan School typically holds two Open Houses throughout the school year. This new year has brought a new name. As winter progresses, we will share more information about our Visit the Nest Days, formerly called our Open Houses. More details to come! Walk in’s are welcome!
During the average Visit the Nest, you will receive information about the school including some history, application process, and financial aid. You will also have the chance to meet some of our current administration, faculty, and current families. You will receive the opportunity to see various spaces on campus including classrooms, the library, and the gym. Prospective students are highly encouraged to attend the Visit the Nest with their families.
Campus Soar
In the past, we have offered Campus Tours to our students. Now, they will be called Campus Soars! As we begin slowly opening our school back up to assure our students’ safety, we will share more details about when we will offer Campus Soar opportunities.
