McGill-Toolen Catholic High School is proud to welcome parents interested in a catholic education for their student to Parent Preview Night on Tuesday, November 18 from 5:30 to 7:30 P.M. 

Parent Preview Night is designed to give families a firsthand look at McGill’s distinguished academics, faith-centered community, and the many opportunities that make a Catholic education attainable. The evening showcases faculty, students, alumni, and current parents as they share how the McGill experience prepares students for success beyond high school. Guests will also gain a sense of student life and the encouraging community that helps every Jacket thrive through tours led by student ambassadors.

“McGill-Toolen is a place where every student is known, valued, and equipped to reach their potential,” said Mark Snyder, Director of Enrollment. “Our mission is rooted in preparing young people not just for graduation, but for a life of purpose and leadership. With the support of initiatives like the CHOOSE Act, more families can now experience the faith, excellence, and community that define McGill-Toolen.”
