2025-2026 Fall Private School Open Houses in Boston
It goes without saying that choosing where to send your child to school is an important decision—and with so many top schools in the Boston area, it can be difficult to know which one is best for your family. Researching and asking around are solid ways to start your decision-making process, but to ensure that your child will feel comfortable on campus (and that you’ll feel confident in your choice), nothing compares to a visit. To help you find the perfect fit and plan your campus visits this fall, here’s a roundup of 2025 and 2026 private school visits.
