“Eagle for a Day” Shadow Day
Students applying for grade 2 through grade 8 are required to complete an “Eagle for a Day” Shadow Day. Younger students will attend half of the day, while students entering grades 5 through 8 will participate in a full day at SJE. During the shadow day, students will be assigned to an SJE student buddy as the prospective student explores a day in the life of an SJE student. During their time at SJE, prospective students will also participate in screening assessments in reading and math.
