Northshore Council PTSA is a welcoming organization that works to support our Local PTAs and serve the children and youth of our community through advocacy, collaboration, education, engagement, leadership, and mentorship.
2025-2026 E-Prep Co-Chairs: Tracy Jokisch and Jen Jennings Carr, [email protected]
Our Vision: To achieve a Whole Community approach to emergency preparedness and resilience, as set forth by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), within our school communities throughout the Northshore School District. The Whole Community approach emphasizes that emergency preparedness is a shared responsibility, calling for the involvement of everyone to create a secure and resilient community.
Our Mission: To provide training, networking, and support to PTSA parents and emergency preparedness chairs from each school, fostering collaboration between the school and the PTSA. We aim to assist in the management of emergency plans, supplies, preparedness education, community engagement, and the support of drills. This will be achieved by building strong relationships with the school administration, emergency coordinator, nurse, and custodial staff.
Our Values:
- Equitable: impartially serving all parents, teachers, staff, and students
- Dedicated: committed to fulfilling our obligations
- Integrity: responsible stewards of resources and funds
- Teamwork: support each other in meeting our mission and goals
- Collaborative: seeking partnerships across the whole community for mutual benefit
- Creative: innovative thinkers finding new solutions
- Proactive: anticipating needs and actions
- Professional: trustworthy, ethical, respectful, and supportive with a sense of duty to assist with safety and security
Monthly Meetings
You are invited to join our Council PTSA Monthly E-Prep Chair Meetings on the first Wednesday every month via Zoom. Anyone in the PTA/PTSA is welcome to attend our meetings. We encourage local PTA/PTSA E-Prep chairs to attend, as well as Presidents, VPs, or other PTA/PTSA delegates. In this meeting we share and obtain updates from the NSD Safety team and discuss opportunities where the PTA can provide support to our schools in the areas of emergency preparedness, safety, and security.
