Admission Events
We offer a wide variety of opportunities specifically designed for families, parents or students to get to know Harker through their specific lens.
We recommend attending at least one event to get to know us (K-6 require attending one event). However, we understand that you have busy lives and don’t expect you to attend all events. The number of events you attend will not affect your application evaluation.
