The Arts
Fine and Performing Arts at Northwest Catholic High School.

NWC Dramateurs in Microsoft Teams
Northwest Catholic's spring production of The Sound of Music might be on hold, but the school's theater troupe sticks together like family. Directors Mrs. Avery and Ms. Morran have created a "team" in NWC Virtual School Microsoft Teams app. Dramateurs should stay tuned for club meetings and messages.
