North Junior High Fine Arts Shines in UIL and Jr. VASE Competitions!

Great things are happening at North Junior High! The RNJH Fine Arts department recently showcased their incredible talent and hard work by competing in UIL events—and the results were nothing short of outstanding.

All participating students received the highest honors at UIL, reflecting the dedication of both the students and their instructors.

In addition, our talented student artists who competed in the Junior Visual Arts Scholastic Event (Jr. VASE) made school history. 100% of the RNJH artists earned medals, each receiving a perfect score of 4—a true testament to their creativity, skill, and preparation.

We are so proud of our Fine Arts students for representing North with excellence and heart. Congratulations to all!
