Secondary School Fair
September 29, 2026, 6:00–8:00pm
The North Shore Secondary School Fair is a great opportunity to make connections with representatives from day, boarding, and parochial schools from across New England and beyond. This is an ideal opportunity for students and families to learn about schools of various sizes, geographic locations, and programmatic emphases.
This event is free and open to all families and is especially relevant for those with students in grades 7 & 8. No matter where you are in your search for the ideal secondary school for your child, you’ll find this to be an extraordinarily informative occasion.

We look forward to hosting the 2026 Secondary School Fair!
“For North Shore families who see the value of private school education, fairs allow a school to come to life—literally—through dialogue with school representatives at a table. The chance to ask follow-up questions or gain insight into why a school prioritizes what it does has incredible value for a prospective student and family.”
