Farewell Open Houses
Come celebrate with us before some schools close at the end of the 2021-2022 school year. These events are open to all of our families and neighbors as well as current and former staff.
The Curious Savage on stage at North April 7-9
North High Drama presents The Curious Savage, a comedic play about Ethel P. Savage, an elderly woman whose husband recently died and left her approximately ten million dollars. Contrasting the kindness and loyalty of psychiatric patients with the obsessive vanity of "respectable" public figures, and family members, it calls into question conventional definitions of kindness, decency, and sheer lunacy.
Showtimes:
Thursday, April 7 at 7 p.m.
Friday, April 8 at 7 p.m.
Saturday, April 9 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Presale tickets available until Friday, April 1 for only $6!
ORDER YOUR TICKETS ONLINE TODAY! (Or, bring your smartphone to buy tickets at the door. All ticket sales are online - even at the door. There is no cash accepted at the door.)

Scene Around 622
Justice Page and family tours Justice Alan Page Elementary School
Last Saturday, Justice Alan Page and members of his family got a behind the scenes tour of the new Justice Alan Page Elementary School. He was presented a framed rendering of the building along with a ceremonial key. He was very humbled and honored to be a part of the lives of children who attend the school which opens this fall.
Mascot unveiled for Justice Alan Page Elementary School
We are pleased to announce that the new mascot for Justice Alan Page Elementary School is the Bees. Justice Page authored a book with his daughter Kamie called Bee Love (Can Be Hard), so the bee is a fitting mascot for the school.
