Activities
North Andover High School's Drama Guild holds four major performances every year. In January 2007, the school hosted its first One-Act festival, in which three One-Act productions were performed, a tradition that has since been discontinued. The One-Act performances were typically student directed plays. The guild is supported financially by a parent's organization.
The Pep Band plays at some school functions, including home basketball games and the Special Olympics. The school chorus was invited to sing at Carnegie Hall in April 2011 due to their gold medal rating at their competition in Philadelphia, PA.[when?]
Other extracurricular activities include academic teams (Math, Science or Model United Nations), intramural sports (Ping Pong, Environmental Club and Ultimate Frisbee), multicultural clubs (Spanish, German, and a Gay-Straight Alliance), and a dance club. The Johnson Chapter of the National Honor Society coordinates volunteer work from among the school's top ranked juniors and seniors.
