Shadow Days

The Hannan Experience

At Archbishop Hannan High School we invite prospective students to spend a day on campus. A Hawk For a Day shadow visit gives prospective students the opportunity to experience the traditions, students and faculty that make Archbishop Hannan High School a unique academic community. At the end of the school day the participant walks away with a much better idea of whether Archbishop Hannan is the right school for them. Seventh and eighth grade students are welcome to visit Archbishop Hannan during the fall semester and ninth grade students are welcome during the spring semester.

Shadow Days will be scheduled by appointment after November 16, 2011 . Please contact our Admission Director, Mr. Fiedler, to arrange for your child’s shadow day.

Shadow Day Highlights

  • Enjoy lunch in our Dining Hall
