Tour TRS

We wish we could invite you to experience our teachers and students interacting in the classrooms and on campus as we have always been so proud to do.

Until COVID-19 is no longer a threat, we have suspended campus tours until further notice. We are following CDC, NCDHHS and other guidelines, exercising extreme care and caution to ensure the health and well being of the children and adults working on our campus.

For now, please join us on a Virtual Tour of The Raleigh School Preschool campus or sign up for one of our virtual Information and Q&A sessions.

Or experience a Virtual Day in one of our Preschool Threes classes.

Our virtual elementary tour will be available soon. Until then, please enjoy this drone preview of our elementary play space.

For more information, please contact our Admissions Team at 919-534-0758 or admissions@raleighschool.org.

The most amazing thing about this is that my children were in an environment that has fostered a love of learning. Not only is the learning fun but the teachers allow the kids to be kids and use their own creativity. No matter where they go to middle school I believe that TRS has set the foundation of how teachers should treat students and how people treat people.
