Webb to open campus for Visitors' Day on Jan. 20

The Webb School will open its campus on Jan. 20 for Visitors' Day to host prospective students and their families. The daylong event begins at 9 a.m. with registration and breakfast and concludes at 3 p.m.

The schedule includes the daily chapel program and also a tour of the 150-acre campus, led by a current Webb student. Visiting students will then attend lunch and class with a Webb student while parents attend informational panels regarding academic and extra-curricular programming and financial aid and scholarship opportunities. 

"We welcome families to this event so they can experience The Webb School first-hand," said Julie Harris, director of enrollment management. "Jan. 20 is an ideal day to visit since local schools are closed for the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, and it is before our priority early application deadline of Feb. 20," added Harris.

Those planning to attend are asked to RSVP by Jan. 17 by emailing admissions@webbschool.com or calling 931-389-6003. Families who are unable to attend on Jan. 20 are welcome to schedule a personal tour of campus Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. To schedule a personal campus visit, please call 931-389-6003.
