Family involvement is at the heart of our mission. When parents, guardians, and caregivers are engaged, students are more confident, responsible, and motivated to achieve their goals.
Your encouragement and praise make a world of difference — and when challenges arise, your partnership helps us guide students toward better choices and stronger outcomes.
If you’re a parent, guardian, or caregiver of a North Side scholar, we invite you to:
Connect regularly with teachers and principals.
Attend school events and our Annual Title I, II, IV Parent Meeting.
Join the North Side Parent Organization (NPO) — a welcoming group that supports our students, staff, and community.
Foster Care and Homeless Liaison
At North Side Community School, the foster care and homeless services point of contact is social worker Jessie Tavares who can be reached via email (by clicking her name) or by calling 314.499.2009 ext. 3404.
North Side Community School recognizes families’ right to request online coursework through the Missouri Course Access and Virtual School Program (MOCAP).
MOCAP provides access to state-approved virtual courses that may be requested as part of a student’s education. All requests are reviewed to ensure alignment with the student’s academic plan and overall success at North Side.
For more information or to submit a request, please contact the school office.
North Side Community School is one of 12 St. Louis public charter schools working together to simplify our initial application process into one easy form, SchoolAppSTL, that you can fill out on any electronic device. The application allows you to apply to our school in less than 3 minutes and makes applying to schools easier, more accessible and more transparent.
