Why should I join North Creek PTSA?
We are part of the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) which is the oldest child advocacy organization in the United States. The National PTA provides parents and families with a powerful legislative voice to speak on behalf of every child and the best tools to help their children be safe, healthy, and successful -- in school and in life.
Your membership is your voice (legislative voice) for the students of North Creek High School. The more members our PTA has, the more voting delegates we receive at the state level. More voting delegates means more votes that support the interests of our students and families. Our kids are worth the investment and a strong PTA illustrates our community's support to our school and children.
