Pep Band Joined By Class of 2016

The DGN Pep Band was joined by a dozen current 8th grade band students last night who volunteered to play for the Varsity basketball game. The band played and cheered on the Trojans as they battled Proviso West in an exciting contest that featured multiple lead changes.

Thanks to all the 8th graders who sat in with us last night. You sounded great!

FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT PHILOSOPHY

The philosophy of the North High School Fine Arts Department faculty is to offer students a well-rounded curricular experience that includes exposure to genres of music, theatre, and visual art in a wide variety of creative settings. Program goals that serve as tenets for the North High School Fine Arts Department faculty are: To provide a productive and cooperative learning environment in which students of various backgrounds and ability levels may learn to achieve outstanding artistic results; To intentionally study music, theatre and visual art from cultures and communities that have been historically under-represented; To engage students in a journey toward artistic and personal success at the highest level; To develop in young people the appreciation, discrimination, analysis, and participation skills necessary to become lifelong consumers of the arts.
