You can find more information about Elementary Band & Orchestra as well as register your student for Band or Orchestra next school year at these links:

May is Mental Health Awareness Month

More than two years since the onset of the pandemic, recognition and practice of wellness remain at the forefront for our students, families, staff, and community.

As NA continues to address the needs of our community, we are maintaining our focus on mental health and wellness. Select staff members have volunteered to share their expertise, experiences, and tips for normalizing discussions around mental health.

May is recognized nationally as Mental Health Awareness Month. Throughout this next month, be on the lookout for weekly updates and help us to continue educating, supporting, and fighting the stigma for all. Visit our Mental Health and Wellness website to access materials for May 2022. Previous materials (dating back to May 2021) remain accessible to all.
