Welcome to Northside Community Education

Northside Community Education is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to create opportunities for education, recreation and citizen involvement. Our goal is to enhance the quality of life for our community through a centralized community education and recreation program.

Northside strives to create a sense of community through opportunities for active recreation, informal non-credit classes/courses and volunteerism. The programs are designed for all ages. Northside has established a scholarship program to ensure all community members have the opportunity to take advantage of the programs and services offered by Northside Community Ed. Scholarship guidelines and application are located as a link on this website.

The newest schedule of classes will be available late August with details listed in the White Salmon Valley School District's Bear News.  Copies of the schedule will be available at the White Salmon Valley Community Library, the Mt. Adam's Chamber of Commerce and by clicking a link on this website. Northside looks forward to providing a class schedule quarterly.  Community involvement is key to the success of Northside. Your input is appreciated, we are currently looking for ideas for course offerings and instructors. Please e-mail us with your suggestions.  info@nscommunityed.org
