The Barstow School

Barstow Open Houses are one-stop overviews of everything Barstow has to offer. During your Open House visit, you’ll get to meet Barstow faculty, take a campus tour, see examples of student learning experiences, learn about the academic, artistic and athletic offerings in each division, and speak with current students, parents, faculty, Division Heads and Admission Office staff. Open Houses are a great introduction to the Barstow Community. Students and parents are both welcome at Open Houses.

Tours are your opportunity to sit down with Admission staff and get all of your questions answered. Tours include a personal appointment with a member of the Admission staff and a complete, personalized school tour. The combined Admission appointment and tour typically lasts about an hour and occur on a weekday. Tours are typically scheduled on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, when classes are in session and throughout the summer.

 

Please call the Admission Office at 816.277.0306 to schedule your tour.

 

Visit Days are open to any student who has submitted an application to Barstow. Visit Days offer a more personalized look at the day-to-day experience at Barstow. Visiting students are paired with a Barstow student in the same grade. Visit Days are typically on the third Thursday of each month, but special requests can be accommodated.
