About NPTO
The Nova Classical Academy Parent-Teacher Organization (NPTO) is an organization of volunteers engaging families, teachers, and staff in fostering a school community that actively supports Nova’s mission and enriches the students and the school. Any and all current Nova parents, grandparents, teachers, and staff are considered members of Nova PTO and are welcome to volunteer or attend meetings at any time. There are no dues.
While an informal parent-teacher organization has been active since the school’s inception, Nova PTO officially formed in November of 2008 as a legally incorporated entity subject to Minnesota state statutes and IRS regulations governing nonprofit, tax-exempt organizations.
