SHADOW Days
The best way to learn if Creighton Prep is right for you is to experience Prep in person during one of our Shadow Days. Any 7th or 8th-grade prospective or accepted student is invited to spend the day with a current Creighton Prep student. See what a day in the life of a Junior Jay entails, from start to finish -- and lunch is on us! For more information contact us at admissions@creightonprep.org

Dress Code & DIFFERENT DAYS
- Dress Code
- Students should be in our regular dress code. A collared button-up polo or dress shirt with a belt is required. Pants or shorts should be conventional, solid colors such as black, navy blue, stone, brown, olive and khaki. Shoes must be closed-toed.
- Every last day of the week is a "Blue/White" spirit day, which means you wear Creighton Prep (or blue) t-shirts, hoodies. Pants or shorts can be regular dress code or jeans.
- "C Day"
- Block scheduling is an important part about what sets Prep apart and prepares our young men for college. Some days, we have "C Days" to help reset the A/B schedule. Take note on these Shadow Days, you will not be experiencing block scheduling. To understand more about how this day will differ, see our Bell Schedules here.

PARENT PORTION
Some of our Shadow Days also have an optional Parent Portion. On these days, parents/guardians are welcome to stay and walk through some FAQs about Creighton Prep and the admissions process. Plan to stay for about 30 minutes after dropping off your son, to get your questions answered! Visiting students are asked to arrive at 7:45 a.m. and the Parent Portion will begin approximately 8 a.m.
