Supporting our school and building community
Welcome to the PSO website! We hope you find everything you need to get involved at GHNO as well as other important school information. We are continuously improving the website to make sure parents have the latest and most helpful information.
If you can't find what you need, we'd love to hear from you!

Hello Upper School Families!
The PSO is celebrating our amazing Upper School teachers by highlighting a different subject area each month. October 26–30 is Science Teachers Appreciation Week at Northern Oaks Upper School. Express gratitude, share a note, or treat them to something from their Favorites List. Your appreciation means the world to them.
Let's come together to show our Science teachers how much we value all that they do!
The Snowflake Fund is a parent-organized collection that lets us give one meaningful combined cash gift to all of our teachers and staff. Contribute once, and you can officially cross “teacher gifts” off your long holiday to-do and to-buy lists!
The joint gift will be presented to the entire staff at the holiday luncheon just before winter break. Have more questions, read our Snowflake Q&A
Donate once through our Snowflake GoFundMe (Coming Soon!)
All funds will be equally distributed to teachers and staff at the Snowflake Luncheon in December.
If you’d normally spend $10–$15 per teacher on small gifts, simply multiply that amount and make one donation instead.
Let’s show our teachers just how appreciated they are!
Every contribution truly counts...and tomorrow is the last chance to give!
If your students love giving a personal touch, they’re welcome to write or decorate a note on our paper snowflakes. We’d love to shower our teachers with a blizzard of heartfelt messages they’ll treasure.
Thank you for helping us bless and celebrate our amazing faculty this holiday season—let’s rally together before the deadline tomorrow!
Donate once through our Snowflake GoFundMe (deadline: Nov. 20).
The PSO at GHNO does not fundraise! We are in the business of spoiling our teachers, providing volunteers, and putting on fun events for our families.
Every dollar received from the Used Uniform Store allows us to pay for a storage unit, and to treat our teachers to a coffee truck each month.
When you purchase spirit wear, it goes right back into the Griffin Shop to purchase new inventory.
When you attend Community Building events, ticket sales allow us to set aside funds for the next year!
Any money received after we have covered our costs, goes directly back to the school. So, thank YOU for being part of the PSO!
