Visitors Days
Prospective and incoming new parents are welcome to take a walking campus tour on Visitors Days. You'll see the campus on a school day, tour the facilities, visit classrooms, and get a chance to talk to Palms parents and students. Students from Leadership lead the tours.
Children are welcome to take the tours with their parents. Siblings can come along too!
The program begins at 9:00am with an orientation in the Auditorium (see campus map) and usually lasts about 75 to 90 minutes, depending on how many questions you have. After the walking tour, refreshments are served in the Library Garden and a question-and-answer session is held in the Auditorium.
No signups are required. Prospective parents, with or without students and other family members, can simply show up on any of the Visitors Day dates.
There are also Magnet tours for small groups, requiring a sign-up.
Wednesday, April 12, 3:45 to 5:45pm

A special tour for fifth grade Special Education students and their families will take place earlier in the day, from 1:30pm to 3:00pm on Wednesday, April 12, 2023.
