What is Normal Park Spark?
Normal Park Spark is our school support organization that funds and provides academic resources for the students at Normal Park Museum Magnet. Normal Park owes its success to the efforts of faculty, students, parents and the surrounding community. Normal Park Spark marshals the resources of these groups to foster the high student achievement that the school is known for locally and beyond.
In 2017, Normal Park combined it's PTA, Education Fund, and the Lightning Athletic Club to create one streamlined organization for our school and achieve our necessary fundraising goals.
