Since March, Director Vince Durnan has offered an hour-long conversation with him to the USN community. The sessions have helped USN remain transparent and accessible throughout the pandemic and meet the continued interest of parents, faculty, and staff to know what is happening on campus and understand decision-making processes. 

Coffee with the Director will continue at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday on Zoom until all grade levels have returned to in-person learning at the Edgehill Campus. The final session is Tuesday, October 13.
