Volunteer with the NA Traveling Art Gallery!
|
|
The Traveling Art Gallery (T.A.G.) is an art appreciation and visual literacy program unique to North Allegheny School District. Volunteers present famous art prints to kindergarten through fifth grade classrooms. This program utilizes VTS (Visual Thinking Strategies) questioning techniques and introduces students to a diverse collection of famous artists, styles of art, and cultures. The T.A.G. program goals are to enhance each student’s ability to form an opinion about a wide variety of works of art, while developing their critical thinking and communication skills, through presenter led discussion.
T.A.G. is looking for volunteers! If you are interested, please contact the district’s T.A.G. Program Coordinator, and mention what school(s) you'd like to visit!

Reaching for the stars! Join us for a star-studded adventure as North Allegheny Intermediate High School Presents “Peter and the Star Catcher.” This Tony-winning play upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan comes to be The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (a.k.a.

NA High School Musical: “Little Shop of Horrors"
|
|
Our high school cast is blooming with talent as they present “Little Shop of Horrors.” Seymour Krelborn is a meek and dejected assistant at a floral shop who happens upon a strange plant, which he affectionately names “Audrey II” after his crush at the shop. Little does he know that this strange and unusual plant will develop a soulful R&B voice and an unquenchable thirst for HUMAN BLOOD. As Audrey II grows bigger and meaner, the carnivorous plant promises limitless fame and fortune to Seymour, as long as he continues providing a fresh supply of blood. Just when it’s too late, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s extra-terrestrial origins and his true drive for world-domination.

NA Middle School Musical: "Disney's Finding Nemo Jr."
|
|
When the North Allegheny Middle Schoolers tackle the ocean's depths, you know it will be a fin-tastic show! Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic and forgetful Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive and eclectic Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves. Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow,” Finding Nemo JR. brings a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure.
