Friends of North Side: An Emerging Leaders Board

Mission Statement

The mission of North Side Community School — a charter public school serving urban neighborhoods — is to improve each student’s opportunities in education and in life by developing the skills, knowledge, and personal qualities necessary for success.

Description: The Friends of North Side Community School is a dynamic group of 9-13 professionals who raise funds and awareness for North Side. The board meets monthly to discuss strategic initiatives ranging from fundraising to tactical execution of events. A focus of the board is fostering engagement within the greater St. Louis community, and to this end, the Emerging Leaders of North Side group was founded to broaden our reach.

Becoming a Friend of North Side means that you are committed to serving our children and our community. We founded this group with the primary intent of engaging the hearts and minds of your network in support of our community of children, parents and educational professionals! We expect Young Friends to actively engage with the school whether that means attending a volunteer day, tutoring a child or supporting an event.

There is no fee associated with joining.
