Shadowing at BCHS
All 8th grade students are invited to spend a day at Bishop Chatard High School, shadowing a current 9th grade student as he/she attends classes. Shadowing provides 8th grade students the opportunity to experience first hand a "day in the life" of a Bishop Chatard student.
Shadowing Dates
Preliminary requests for shadowing dates can be made online via the 'Request a Date' button on the right. This request form merely starts the process. After completion, you will receive a call from the admissions department, confirming the date assigned to you.
The prospective student is responsible for getting permission from his/her grade school principal, as each school has a different policy in allowing students to shadow.
Please contact Meredith Fredrickson, Director of Enrollment Management at 317-251-1451, ext. 2267, or email, mfredrickson@bishopchatard.org with any questions you may have.
