Campus Tours

Take a look for yourself – the difference is our community! We welcome the opportunity to host you for a closer look at The Independent School. You can arrange a personal tour by contacting Danielle Dankey Director of Admissions, at (316) 686-0152, ext. 405 to schedule an appointment.

Shadow a Student

One of the best ways to assess “fit” at The Independent School is for prospective students to spend part of the day on-campus. Students see what the classroom environment is like, meet our teachers and current students, learn about fun and exciting special interest activities, and eat lunch on-campus – our treat! We make every attempt to match prospective student visitors with current TIS students who have similar academic and extracurricular interests.

We also host group shadow days during the admission cycle. Prospective students can join us for group visit days on:

6th Grade Shadow Day
Wednesday, February 10

9th Grade Shadow Day
Thursday, February 18

Contact Danielle Dankey, Director of Admissions, at (316) 686-0152, ext. 405 to schedule a shadow day.
