There are three ways to become better acquainted with Almaden Country Day School:
1) a personal tour;
2) an open house visit; and
3) as a two-day student shadow.
ACDS offers campus tours Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday every week. Call (408) 997-0424 to schedule a tour. During the tour, you will learn more about our philosophy and teaching practices as you observe students and teachers in action.
You may also attend a pre-scheduled Saturday or weekday Open House. One of our own Middle School students will lead a campus tour for you. Teachers will be available to answer your specific questions and introduce you to the curriculum.
At ACDS we also give your child the opportunity to “shadow” for two days on campus. He or she will be paired with a current student in the class for which you're applying. This is an important part of the application process, enabling your child to learn firsthand what the school is like while giving ACDS a chance to understand your child’s academic and interpersonal capabilities.
