If Avalon seems like a fit for your family, the easiest next step is to start your application. Step 1 takes about 10–15 minutes, and you can save your progress anytime.

Schedule your shadow

See Avalon from the inside. At Shadow Day, visitors are paired with a student host to experience a typical morning of classes, meet faculty, and explore our vibrant school community. You’ll get a feel for our rigorous academics, strong character formation, and genuine camaraderie among boys. Parents are welcome to attend a brief Q&A with our admissions team while students shadow. RSVP is required.
