TAPstravaganza 2024 was a black-tie affair.
TAPstravaganza was an evening to remember. Thank you to all the faculty, students, administration, staff, parents, and volunteers who made TAPstravaganza possible. We at TAP (that’s Tiger Arts Patrons, the USN equivalent of a booster club for visual and performing arts) are so happy to have been a part of this year’s TAPstravaganza celebration. The arts impact so many of us throughout our school community, and we are proud to celebrate them.
