Choosing a school is about more than reading about a curriculum or looking at photos online. A campus tour gives families the opportunity to experience BASIS Independent Silicon Valley firsthand, explore our learning environment, and get a feel for what daily life is like for our students.
A Small-Group Experience
Our campus tours are designed as a small-group experience, creating a more personal and conversational visit. Families have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and connect with our Admissions team throughout the tour. Prospective students are welcome and encouraged to attend!
Explore Our Campus
During your visit, you’ll explore the spaces where students learn, collaborate, and spend their school day. Depending on the timing of your visit, you may also see classes in action and get a glimpse of daily life on campus.
Along the way, our Admissions team will share more about our curriculum, school culture, facilities, and what makes the BISV experience unique.
