You can find information from the area high schools on this page. I will try to add the information or links as they come in. Your best course of action is to go on the individual schools' websites to see their planned admission items.

Hello AOPS Partner Principals,
I hope you are off to the start of a great school year! I am emailing you today with our Fall Admissions Events at Cardinal O'Hara. If you could please forward the attached PDF graphic with clickable links as well as the information below to your 8th grade families it would be greatly appreciated and/or include in your weekly communication to families. We see so many families starting the high school process earlier and earlier!
I will also be reaching out to each school individually to set up a visit to your 8th grade class before the Open House mid-October. Your former students LOVE going back to their grade school to share about their O'Hara experience (and see all of you!). We have so many freshmen from so many of our local partner schools - a trend we hope to see continue with the O'Hara class of 2027!
Virtual Info Session: Tuesday, September 27th @ 6:00 PM
Webinar format to give families information about Cardinal O'Hara from administrators and faculty panelists. Register here; a zoom link will be sent the morning of the session.
8th Grade Scholarship Test: October 8th, 23rd or 25th
We have three available dates in October for our Scholarship Test to accommodate everyone's schedules. Registration is required.
Fall Open House: Sunday, October 16th from 12:00 - 2:30 PM
Join us at our Open House with student-led tours and faculty on-hand! Pre-register but attend any time between 12:00 noon and 2:30 PM...and the Eagles have a night game so spend the day at O'Hara!
Shadow Days Start Mid-October
After completing an application at COHS.com log in to your School Admin portal to schedule a shadow day in your admissions checklist.
Thank you and I hope to see you soon!
