Students' homes and classrooms are the focal points of their learning experiences—from kindergarten through high school. Parents who work with teachers and students are critical partners in helping their child achieve success.

Parents set the example and the tone for their child's approach to education. When parents are engaged, interested and supportive in their child's learning, the child is more likely to succeed.

Bridging the divide between what is learned in the classroom to how it is relevant in day-to-day life is a critical role for parents. It brings meaning to their child's learning experience.

Parents can make learning real and ensure that students understand the importance of achieving.

North School’s Holiday Store a Big Success
The North School PTO hosted a Holiday Store during the week of December 8, 2008. Students, Teachers and Parents had the opportunity to buy that special something for that special someone without having to leave the school. A wide variety of items in different price ranges were available. Various items for purchase included jewelry, photo frames, coasters, games, stuffed animals and more. At checkout your special purchase was placed in a holiday bag eliminating the need for wrapping. Wish all holiday shopping could be this easy. Thanks to all the volunteers who made this special event happen.



parentsWelcome to our Parent and Community Home Page. North School is fortunate to have a core of very committed parents and various community partners. On the PTO link you will find our PTO Brochures. Next year we will be adding the PTO Calendar electronically. The partnership link holds information and activities that the students participate in with community members. The parent link has our arrival and dismissal map as well as electronic copies of our handbook and school closing and inclement weather links. The most exciting link is our student link with many resources for students and families. Thank you for your continued support!
