Join Northrup PTA -- What does the PTA do?



Have you joined the Northrup PTA yet?  

It's not too late to join -- your membership will still count for the class competition. The winners will get a pizza party & teacher classroom gift!

But what does the PTA do???

We support Northrup School's students, teachers, staff & administrators. Some of our involvement includes:
  • Volunteering at events around the school
  • Raising funds or finding other resources to benefit the school through events, classroom support, or other projects
  • Planning & organizing fun events for the Northrup community 
Becoming a PTA member doesn't mean that you have to volunteer at events or raise tons of money for the school. Your membership helps us exist & provide basic services. Dues go toward our Northrup PTA's national & regional PTA dues and pays for our insurance and other operational costs. 

Please join the Northrup PTA and help us support our students, teachers, staff, administrators & families!
