So Very Proud of Our Education Community!
The North Branch Area Education Foundation is in awe of our Education Teams; which includes all staff members, teachers, bus drivers, facility staff, food service staff, janitorial staff, directors, principals, superintendent and leadership! We watch the NBAPS postings regarding preparation and execution of a new type of learning, Distance Learning! A unique concept for students, teachers, and parents! From educational materials, online learning, home offices, building shut down preparations, student meal preparation and distribution, communications, and technology infrastructure to make Distance Learning possible! We applaud your swift action planning, to continue educating our students, in this new and unique learning experience! Thank You, all, for caring about the students of North Branch Area Public Schools and their right and privilege to continue learning! - Board of Directors, North Branch Area Education Foundation Welcome and Thank You to Kwik Trip!
We were invited to the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the new Kwik Trip (East)! During the Ceremony, they provided a very generous Donation of $1,000 to the North Branch Area Education Foundation!

Each year, the Grant Committee reviews Grant Proposals and awards as many as possible. The Committee typically receives twice as many Grants as there is money. Please consider making a Donation to the NBAEF, attending one of our events, or signing up for payroll deduction.
