About the NCSPA
2024-25 PA President: Jen Camp
The North Cross School Parents’ Association (PA) serves to identify and organize parent-volunteer opportunities, to act as goodwill ambassadors, to provide additional educational opportunities and activities, to serve as an advisory group, and to bring into closer relation the home and the school for the students, faculty, administration, and the parents of North Cross School. Through this mission, the Parents’ Association strives to build a stronger community for all. Becoming involved with the PA is a valuable opportunity to meet other parents, learn about what is happening in all divisions of the school, and give back to the North Cross community.
Meeting Dates
The Parents' Association meets on the third Wednesday of each month at 8:30 a.m. in the Beck Boardroom, unless otherwise communicated. North Cross parents are welcome to attend the meetings and we encourage you to be involved in any committee of your choosing. Parents are invited to join the meeting early for coffee and casual conversation.
Wait Until 8th Pledge
The Parents' Association supports the Wait Until 8th pledge! For those not familiar with it, the Wait Until 8th pledge empowers parents to rally together to delay giving children a smartphone until at least the end of 8th grade. Let’s protect the elementary and middle school years from the distractions and the dangers of a smartphone. Banding together helps decrease the pressure to have a phone at an early age. More than 99,000 parents have said yes to waiting on the smartphone for their families. This is making a tremendous difference in communities across the country! To learn more, click here.
