Northwood Fun Run

Every dollar raised = direct support for our students

Northwood Elementary School PTA understands the need to promote a healthy and educational fundraiser to our students while respecting parents repeated requests for an easy no-nonsense approach to helping us reach our budget goals.

The Fun Run is the only fundraiser we do for the entire year, which means your support makes a huge difference!

In past years with the amazing and generous support from Northwood family and friends we have been able to provide many educational experiences for the students in and out of the classroom as well as provide field trips, assemblies, family fun events, book fairs, technology/media equipment and indoor/outdoor equipment!
