Chris Young Makes Generation to Nashville School of the Arts

Murfreesboro native and RCA Records Nashville singer/songwriter Chris Young visited Nashville School of the Arts (NSA) yesterday to take part in its student-produced program, "NSA Presents."

Young, a YoungArts alumni and U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts recipient while a student in Middle Tennessee, held true to a promise made earlier this year. At the program’s opening, Young made a presentation of his own, donating $30,000 to Nashville School of the Arts to help update and upgrade the school auditorium.

NSA is the only arts magnet high school within Metro Nashville Public Schools, offering its students the “rare combination of rigorous, college preparatory curriculum instructed with intensely focused instruction in the performing or visual arts.”
