CommunicationsThe PDS/USN Story

We invite you to dive into the story of our school, faculty, students, and alumni. Through a variety digital and print publications, the Office of Marketing & Communications offers a look into the innovative curriculum and exemplary work taking place in our classrooms and art studios, on our athletic fields and performance stages, and far beyond the halls of USN. 

The Office of Marketing & Communications also connects journalists with standout students, faculty experts, and administrative leadership. We welcome media inquiries for interviews, photographs, video, and radio recordings to add perspective and depth to stories on educational trends and news.
