Our Blue Key Student Ambassadors can’t wait to welcome you to our campus. 

Prospective students and families applying to Poly’s Upper School will receive tours from Poly Upper School students known as Blue Key Ambassadors.Their unique perspective is informed by their lived experience at Poly. During each tour they will show you around our campus, share why they choose Poly and what their days and years are like, and finally, answer your most pressing questions.

All tours will take place during an Upper School applicant’s scheduled interview appointment – the tour will last for approximately 40 minutes. 

Three things to expect on your Blue Key Ambassador Tour!

  1. Authentic Insights: Our ambassadors reflect the Poly student population and can give you the inside scoop on everything happening in the classrooms, on the fields, on the stages, and in student life.
  2. Picture yourself at Poly: Blue Key students make sure you you get all the info you need to know and can also tailor the tour to what you want to know. Ask specific questions about the things you hope to get from your next school and discover how they’re done at Poly.
  3. Peer Advisors: Current students have walked the same path you’re contemplating now. Hear why they chose Poly and how their expectations were met. Their experiences and insights can be valuable in helping you make a well-informed decision for the next step in your educational journey.
