May 9 is USN Night at Parnassus

Stock up on summer reads as a local bookstore shares a percentage of its profits with USN for purchases made between 3 and 6 p.m. Friday, May 9.
By Andrew Sloane, USNA Fundraising Coordinator

We hope to see you, your family, and your friends at 3900 Hillsboro Pike on Friday, May 9 during USN Night at Parnassus Books. The locally owned bookstore will donate 10% of all sales made in person and by phone between 3 and 6 p.m. to University School of Nashville.

This fundraiser is an excellent opportunity to stock up on materials for summer reading lists, which the English Department releases in early May at usn.org/reading. All the money raised during this USNA event will go to continuing education opportunities for faculty and staff.

Families can also continue to support USN while doing their regular shopping at Kroger and Publix as well as by digitally clipping Box Tops my logging into their digital accounts with those retailers and marking the school as its designated charity.
