Parents will need their IDs to check in.

IMPORTANT: All shadow students should be ready to start the school day with us at 8:00 A.M. It’s important for us to start our day on time, so if your student arrives later than 7:50 A.M., the Admissions Office will require your Shadow Day to be rescheduled.

Kindergarten-5th Grade
Shadows should arrive at our Elementary building by 7:50 A.M. on the day of your child’s scheduled Shadow Day.

Your child will be welcomed by their teacher and classmates for the day, and will get to participate in all classroom activities, specials, and P.E. Your student's Shadow Day will also serve as a way to assess your child's academic preparedness.

Note: Kindergarten Shadow Days are half days only.

Policies

Attire

We ask that all of our shadow students be conservatively dressed. Shadow students do not have to come in a uniform, however we do ask our guests to follow our Bracken Spirit Dress guidelines.

Students can wear solid colored pants or slacks or opt to wear nice jeans that fit appropriately. Please do not come in jeans with holes or pants that sag.
Shorts are fine to wear, so long as the length is appropriate.
T-shirts or polos are acceptable.
Close-toed shoes are a must.
Our students are not allowed to wear facial piercings or sport brightly colored hair/outlandish hairstyles, so we ask that our guests follow suit.

Overall, parents, please use good judgment with your child’s attire as our goal is to provide a positive experience for both your family and our current students and staff as well.

Behavior

Shadow students must behave appropriately and follow classroom rules as outlined by each teacher. We ask that our shadow students follow instructions, act appropriately, and behave respectfully, just as we expect from our students. Our heart is to give our shadow students the best experience of our campus.

Electronics

Shadow students are not allowed to use any electronic devices during the school day. Cell phones, iPods, earbuds, gaming devices, etc. must be turned off. We expect the same from our students.
