Peachtree Corners Business Association Donates $500 to Norcross High School Foundation of Excellence

The Peachtree Corners Business Association awarded a check for $500 to The NHS Foundation of Excellence at our January 2024 Business After Hours Speaker Series Event!

The mission of the NHS Foundation of Excellence (NHSFE) includes raising funds  to play a pivotal role in generating resources necessary to provide the level of excellence and education desired for ALL students.  NHS is a Title I school and offers the International Baccalaureate® Diploma Programme curriculum.  The school’s population is diverse: approximately 52 percent of students are Hispanic, over 28 percent of students are African American, 13 percent of students are White, nearly 4 percent of students are Asian, and 3 percent identify as Other. Two-third of these students qualify for free and reduced lunch. It is estimated that over 35 different languages are spoken at home.

Funds for the PCBA Community Outreach program are raised throughout the year from PCBA membership, sponsorship, and our annual charity event.  Donations and scholarships are awarded at our monthly events so our members have the opportunity to learn more about these organizations.
