We are excited to announce that USN’s annual Music Night — our beloved fundraiser supporting music, arts, and athletics programming across the school — will take place on Saturday, April 11, 2026.
This year’s Music Night will feature a very special performance by the legendary Rodney Crowell, one of the most respected and influential singer-songwriters in Americana music. A member of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, Crowell is a multi-GRAMMY® Award–winning artist whose songs have been recorded by icons such as Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, and Keith Urban. As a solo artist, he is known for his thoughtful storytelling, masterful songwriting, and ability to blend country, folk, and Americana into music that is both timeless and deeply personal.
Crowell’s work has earned widespread acclaim for its emotional depth, literary lyricism, and lasting cultural impact. Additionally, his children and grandchildren have attended USN through the years, making him a truly special headliner for an evening at USN. Click here for more information about Rodney.
We hope you’ll join us for an unforgettable night in support of arts and athletics at USN.

Back-to-school Popsicle Party cancelled
Mother Nature is not cooperating for our annual Popsicle Party. Depending on which weather app you use, actual and feels-like temperatures are 98 to 101 and higher. Under these conditions, we would limit student activities, so, in the interest of everyone's health and well-being, we are going to cancell our gathering at the River Campus. There is just not enough shade and certainly no air conditioning to bring relief to hundreds of USN families. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to seeing you in a few days for the start of our new school year.Read More
