  How can parents/community help?

The PTA has over 300 members and sponsors a wide variety of activities to enhance our learning community. PTA has contributed over $50,000 towards those activities.

Over 150 children participated in this year's program. We believe that our school is part of a learning community. Volunteers are always welcome at North Bend Elementary School. Parents and community members assist us regularly in the building, participate in a wide variety of PTA activities, serve on the Learning Improvement Team, district committees, and assist with the Demo Team. Over 500 parents and community members were active volunteers during the year.
