VALUES

Please register for either a Campus Tour (weekday) and/or Self-Guided Family Tour (weekend) to visit our campus. Register for an event through Ravenna. 

Campus Tour

Mid-October - January

  • A vital part of learning about MCDS is at our in-person Campus Tours where you will have the opportunity to meet our Head of School, Katherine Dinh, our Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Division Heads, and our Admission Team. These visits will include an extensive on campus tour hosted by current MCDS parents. We are excited to have the opportunity to have parents/guardians on campus this year, however in following safety protocols, all indoor classrooms and buildings will be inaccessible to parents/guardians during the tour. Thus, we ask that you view the Program and Place Video prior to attending, as this will offer a closer look at our curriculum and community. This event is a required part of the Admission process. Please note that parents/guardians may alternatively choose to visit our campus during the weekend for a Self-Guided Family Tour to fulfill this admission step. Please register for all events through Ravenna.
