The NFA Parent Council is committed to the mutual support and growth of the Academy community - meeting the needs of the students and their families - enriching ourselves and encouraging our children to strive for success in their individual goals. This is accomplished through various resources and opportunities set forth in our guiding principles.
As I leave the NFA Parent Council, I would like to thank the parent volunteers who helped with the success of this organization. Their hard work and dedication has been second to none.--Ernie Marvin
The Council's most noteworthy achievement is to organize, promote, and fundraise for the Alcohol and Drug Free Post-Prom Party provided to graduating seniors and their guests. Also noteworthy is that the Parent Council provides scholarships to graduating seniors.
Having diversified in many areas, the goals remain to support "our kids". Parents from any sending town are invited to become involved with the Parent Council and share in the education of their children.

Please attend our meeting and learn about the Parent Council. We are looking for hard working parents to support our efforts.
NFA students need your assistance and the NFA Parent Council needs your help. The Parent Council meetings consist of 13 to 18 parents per month. NFA has a student body of 2521 with less than 1% participation from families on the Parent Council. Furthermore, very few of these parents have children who are seniors, the students who benefit most from the council's work. Communications between parents, staff, teachers and department heads have been enhanced by the monthly speakers at our meetings. Please feel free to attend a monthly meeting and join the NFA Parent Council.

- Shop-n-Card: This new program allows parents/student/teachers to purchase "gift" cards to many local businesses for cost. There will be no extra cost for the cards however the businesses provide a percentage back to the school. This is a win-win for everyone. Details can be found on this web site. The order form is also here or can be picked up at NFA. Purchase a Stop & Shop card for your own shopping or a Brooks Brothers card for a special Gift or purchase a Home Depot card for that handy person.
