At Kirby, students are known deeply, challenged wisely, and supported fully. Join us for an immersive Open House designed to help your family experience what makes our 6–12 school in Santa Cruz both courageously different and profoundly human.
You’ll meet students who think boldly, faculty who teach with heart, and leaders who believe learning should be both rigorous and relational. Expect more than a tour—this is a window into a community where curiosity thrives, individuality is honored, and becoming is the point.
What to Expect:
A warm welcome from school leadership, including Head of School Christy Hutton
Student-led tours that offer a candid look inside classrooms, studios, and labs
A chance to hear directly from teachers, students, and parents
Meaningful conversations about curriculum, belonging, and what sets Kirby apart
Light refreshments and space to connect with other prospective families
Whether you’re exploring middle school, considering a high school transition, or simply curious about a different kind of education, we’d love to meet you.
