Lower School Visit Day - Ways to Visit - McDonogh School

Lower School Visit Day

Saturday, November 7, 2026 | 9:00–11:00 a.m.

McDonogh invites prospective prekindergarten and kindergarten students and families to meet the people and see the places that make learning so exciting for early childhood students in the Lower School!

Spend the morning exploring classrooms with your child on a self-guided tour, playing on the playgrounds, or connecting with our dedicated and talented prekindergarten and kindergarten teachers, who will be available in various locations to connect with you and your little ones and answer your questions.

Interested in a parents-only event that explores our entire Lower School program in even greater depth? Consider registering for one of our three Welcome Wednesday events on September 23, October 7, or November 18. Or, for an event full of fall fun for preschool-age children and their families, consider registering for our Fall Fun at Roots Farm event on October 17.
