What is there for parents to do?
Parents are welcome on the tour and can ask questions to the Tell School Faculty and Admissions Officers at the start of the Audition Day. We have free WiFi and quiet places around the building where we can direct you if needed. There is a Starbucks on campus in our library and the University Store is beside the Student Memorial Center. If you would like to leave campus, Lancaster is only 10 minutes away and the outlets and the mall are only 15 minutes away. Most parents/guardians stay in the building, but students are more than welcome to guide you across campus and/or answer your questions.
