The North Academy of World Languages Parent-Teacher Association (NAWL PTA) was chartered by the North Carolina PTA (NCPTA) in 2021 at the opening of the school. Along with the NCPTA and National PTA, our mission is to advocate for the education, health, safety and success of all youth while building strong families and communities. We also share the same values of Collaboration, Commitment, Accountability, Respect, Inclusivity, and Integrity.
The NAWL PTA is at approximately 260 members this school year, but with a school of over 1,000 we can be so many more! Parents, teachers, and anyone else concerned about the well-being of our children are encouraged to join the NAWL PTA (annual dues of $10 per person), volunteer their time on one of our many committees, and attend our 4 general PTA meetings during the year (September, November, March, & May). Active parent and teacher involvement is one of the many reasons why North Academy is such a strong school!
Thanks to our fundraisers, committees, and countless volunteer hours, the PTA is proud to support our school! By helping our students & staff, building a strong community, and hosting family events, we are able to give back to team that pours their hearts into our school every day!
To keep making NAWL an incredible place, we ask you to help the PTA achieve its mission by sharing your gifts, becoming an annual member, volunteering your time or donating to the Narwhal Fund.
I have spent the last few years working in various volunteer positions and with nonprofits throughout the Charlotte region. I enjoy collaborating with school staff, community organizations and individuals who care about children, families and education. As President, my primary goal for the PTA is to build on the accomplishments of the last two years to grow our strength as a community. Outside of NAWL, my family & I enjoy traveling. We travel far and often using the global skills that are the foundation of NAWL.
