Spring Open House

A First Look at Daily Life at Nichols

Choosing the right school often begins with a simple question: Would my child fit in and excel here?

Spring Open House is an opportunity to step inside Nichols during an active school day and experience daily life on campus firsthand. You’ll walk the halls, visit classrooms, and see how students are challenged, supported, and prepared for what comes next.

If Nichols has ever crossed your mind, this is the moment to decide for yourself.

Date: Tuesday, March 24, 2026

Time: 8:45 to 10:30 AM

What the Morning Looks Like


  1. Welcome Gathering
    The morning begins with a welcome in the Flickinger Performing Arts Center, including a short video and remarks from members of our school leadership.

  2. Explore Daily Life on a Campus Tour
    Families then split into Middle School and Upper School groups for guided experiences through campus. Classrooms are in session, see students actively engaged, and faculty pause to welcome visitors and share insight into their work. 

  3. Conversations & Closing
After the tour you will have time to connect with leadership, various faculty, coaches, and staff. The Admissions team will chat quickly about the application process and answer any questions you may have.

Light breakfast refreshments and coffee will be available.

Why Families Choose Nichols

Nichols is a school where students are known, challenged, and prepared.
We hold high expectations, academically, creatively, and personally, and pair them with the attention, access to faculty, and resources students need to rise to them.

Our students graduate ready to think critically, lead with integrity, and navigate what comes next with purpose. Leadership is developed through participation. Confidence is built through challenge. Preparation is intentional, not incidental.

"I chose to come to Nichols because of the teacher and student relationships, I always found I worked and learned better in smaller groups and class sizes. Nichols provides this for all of their students, which has helped me become a better student and person."
