While we manage our community's response to a world pandemic, reckon both together and as individuals with American history, and work to make the present and the future better, our school lives are speculative.

While we manage our community's response to a world pandemic, reckon both together and as individuals with American history, and work to make the present and the future better, our school lives are speculative.
At this time, we cannot say when or how the arts at USN will continue during the 2020-2021 school year. We can say that we will find a way, as our community found their "make it work" moments at the end of the past school year.
The upcoming year would typically open with a save the date note for arts patrons for all the events scheduled throughout the year: the Middle School musical, Student Theater Guild Scene Night, the High School musical, the MS & HS Band Concert, Jazz Band, and the Dance Showcase, just to start.
Tiger Arts Patrons will do all we can to foster opportunities for our arts students to showcase their talents. Art is meant to be shared, and we want to help our students share in a responsible manner.
