Fall Fridays, 2020

Fall Fridays provide 8th graders with the opportunity to see what life is like as a student at D.A. Students spend the day shadowing a 9th or 10th grade student leading up to the TACHS Exam. Sessions will take place on September 25th and October 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th. Availability is limited and is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Reservations must be placed at least one week in advance. Please contact Madeleine B. Metzler, '07 Director of Admissions, with questions or to register by email or phone, 212-744-0195, ext. 131.

It is important to note that shadow days will only take place if and when deemed safe in accordance with health guidelines laid out by the Archdiocese of New York, Department of Education, and local and state officials. We will update this section as new information becomes available to us, and will share alternatives for prospective students to "get a feel" for D.A. during their application process.
