Purple Reigns @ Northwestern

The Trojan Marching Band is in Evanston today to join another band that wears Purple and a white 'N'. This evening's Northwestern vs. Vanderbilt football game, televised under the lights on the Big Ten Network (7 pm), will feature our DGN Trojan Marching Band alongside the award-winning "Wildcat" Marching Band.

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.
