Schedule a Tour
We encourage families interested in Foothills to begin their application journey with a school tour. During your visit, you’ll meet our Head of School, visit classrooms to meet teachers and see learning in action, learn more about our unique educational program, and have plenty of time to ask questions.
Tours are available throughout the school year and summer and typically include only one or two families, giving us the opportunity to learn more about your child and what your family hopes to find in a school community. Sign up for a tour today!

Our admissions process is designed to help families and the school determine whether Foothills is the right fit for each student. Throughout the process, we will learn more about your child while giving your family opportunities to explore our mission, values, educational program, and community.
Through the admission of new families, Foothills seeks to build a diverse and connected community of students and families.
