ACDA Boys Honor Choir

Congratulations to Ian Cates, Robbie Gartlan, Keaton Hellman, Liam Rowley, Patrick Troyan & Martin Whitmore, who were selected to participate with the ACDA 8-10 Grade Boys Honor Choir this weekend at the IL-ACDA Fall Conference. These students had the opportunity to rehearse with well-known and respected conductor Randy Swiggum, and had the chance to perform a concert for the IL-ACDA membership and community this afternoon. Congratulations to these young men on a wonderful day of music-making!

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.
