This week, the admissions department began to welcome seventh and eighth graders to spend a day at STA. This tradition, referred to as “shadowing,” allows perspective students to observe classes, meet teachers, and get an overall feel for the atmosphere here at STA.

Shadows will have the opportunity to visit STA any Thursday or Friday from now until Jan 15. Each shadow receives a gift bag containing a folder with information about STA and special treats including post-it notes and a card holder for their phone. They are also given pizza for lunch and taken on a tour of campus throughout the day.
