Inver Grove Heights Schools

We offer select dates for families to tour Atheneum both in person and virtually. The content of the tours will be essentially the same in both formats.  During the in person tours, we will be able to go take a look at each of the Atheneum classrooms to meet the teachers and see what a typical day in an Atheneum classroom looks like.  At the virtual tour, you will get an overview of the Atheneum program, learn about our curriculum and have time to ask questions.  

All in person tours last approximately one hour.
