Shadow Days
To get a first-hand look at Carmel Catholic High School, we encourage 7th and 8th grade students to spend a day with us! During a "Shadow Day," visiting students are paired with a freshman student who will serve as the visitor's personal guide for the day. We have found that visitors who participate in this unique "Shadow Day" experience are less apprehensive about their pending high school experience. Please be sure to sign up for your "Shadow Day!" For more information or to set up your "Shadow Day" please call (847) 388-3320.

7th grade students are eligible to shadow during the spring semester.
8th grade students may shadow during the fall semester. 8th graders who take the CCHS entrance exam may also shadow during the spring semester.
Students must pre-register for a Shadow Day with the Director of Admissions at least five days before the intended visiting day. On the day of the visit, students must register at the reception desk at Entrance I by no later than 8:00 AM and turn in the Shadow Day permission slip form. In turn, students will receive a guest pass for the day as well as be assigned to a current Carmel student, who will serve as his/her guide throughout the day. Shadow Days conclude at 2:00 PM at Entrance I.
Shadow Days are not permitted on half days, one week prior to and during exams, before holidays, or during “special schedules.” The number of Shadows per day is limited. Guests are expected to abide by Carmel school rules and dress code.
If you have any questions, please contact the Director of Admissions at (847) 388-3320.
