Awards are a great way for PTAs to show their community how much they appreciate them and to celebrate the dedication of those who support the PTA's mission and goals. Many PTAs participate in the WSPTA's formal volunteer award recognition program, which allows local PTAs to honor outstanding educators, advocates, student advocates, and volunteers (Golden Acorn), as well as bestow the honorary life membership award. A portion of the cost of these awards goes directly toward the WSPTA Scholarship Program, benefiting students. This means the recognition given to our amazing volunteers also helps students pay for continued education, making it a gift that keeps on giving. Below is the 2023-2024 list of Local Award Recipients. Congratulations! 2023-2024 |
