Uniting K-12 FamiliesThe USNA
The University School of Nashville Association (USNA) is a vibrant service and fundraising organization. Its members include USN parents, guardians, family, alumni, friends, faculty and staff. Our mission is to enhance the educational experiences of our students by fostering a spirit of community and by supporting the school with needed services and resources. The volunteer opportunities are as diverse as our school community.USNA's fundraising events each year include the Fall Book Frenzy, Fall Fest, the Artclectic art show and sale, Music Night, Evening Classes, and Bonus Bucks. Fans of the performing arts often join Tiger Arts Patrons (TAP), and sports enthusiasts join Tiger Club, which supports USN's athletic programs and facilities.
The USNA is a school community in support of the educational excellence provided to our children, emphasizing involvement, inclusion, and participation and serving as a resource to our Edgehill neighbors.
