Be sure to stop by our All School Open House on Sunday, January 8th from 12:00–2:00 pm. Here is a sneak-peak of what the Open House has to offer!

Q & A Sessions with our Head of School, Upper School Director & Middle School Director

Be sure to stop by one or two of these informal information sessions to learn more about The Northwest School—our community, our philosophy and our goals for our students—and to ask any questions you may have about the school.

Learn about our Special Programs

Hear from our Counselors and Program Directors about the special programs and guidance offered to the students at Northwest. Learn about our Environment and Outdoor Programs, talk with our College Counselors, and hear about Athletics, Global Learning, Diversity and Student Life at Northwest.

Meet NWS Faculty

Our Faculty are the life-blood of the school; this is your opportunity to meet with the teachers, the counselors and the deans who our students learn from every day.

Meet NWS Students

Current NWS students will be available on Sunday to discuss their personal experiences. Students will be in classrooms and around the school to answer questions and tell you why they chose to come to Northwest.

Explore our House and Visit our Neighborhood

The Northwest School is set in an urban campus that is housed in a historic landmark—explore the hallways of the school and stop for coffee on Pike Street (Kaladi is a well-known NWS-haunt). After the open house visit Elliott Bay Book Co. on 10th street—we have a partnership with them and host an event at the store every fall. Get a feel for the school and the surrounding community so you can picture yourself here next fall.

Talk to NWS Parents

Current Northwest School Families help run our open houses. Be sure to meet some of our parents and talk to them about the school. They offer a wealth of information and can share with you stories only a parent would know—like that their son eats kale when it’s served in the Cafeteria or how their 8th grade daughter turned the dining room into a workshop the week she spent prepping for the annual bridge-building competition.

Departmental & Classroom Visits

Head into the classrooms and you’ll learn all about the academics offered at Northwest. Each classroom will house a different department and as you travel around the school faculty will share details about their department, the curriculum, and answer your questions. Here’s your chance to explore the academic opportunities at Northwest.

The Northwest School is excited to meet you and your families and to help you to have the best visit possible!
