01What it does

What L'Etoile Du Nord French Immersion Parent Organization does

Mission

To provide support to the students, parents, teachers and administrators of l'etoile du nord french immersion, an elementary school in the st. Paul public school system.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Program

  1. The l'etoile du nord parent teacher organization had a busy and productive fiscal year. We were able to organize and fully fund our native french speaking teaching intern program, bringing four interns to l'etoile du nord. We also held several all-school events including the fall "carnaval des citrouilles and the spring "kermesse" festivals. We organized and sponsored a monthly open gym for students. We organized two book fairs, as well as multiple teacher appreciation meals. In addition, we sold and distributed spirit gear and held our annual campus beautification event. We held several important fundraisers, including a direct donation campaign and a glow run. We supported the school celebration of national african american parent involvement day and sponsored a dance residency with afoutayi. Our dedicated team of volunteers worked very hard this year to enrich our school and student learning.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund L'ETOILE DU NORD FRENCH IMMERSION PARENT ORGANIZATION.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $66k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
