Meet your 2025-2026 PTA Board
Northwood PTA is a 100% volunteer-led organization made up of hard-working parents who pool their talents to provide practical support for our school. Those listed below volunteered to provide leadership this year. Feel free to ask them if you have questions.
The PTA Board meets monthly to plan and discuss events, programs and vision for our school community. Our meetings are always open to anyone who would like to join us!
