Golden Acorn
The Golden Acorn Award is offered by the Washington State PTA in recognition of a volunteer for their dedication and service to children and youth. It recognizes volunteer service "above and beyond" a particular job description.
Outstanding Educator
The Outstanding Educator Award recognizes educators who provide outstanding educational opportunities for children and youth that are beyond the normal scope of their jobs, to make the learning environment fun, beneficial, and challenging.
Outstanding Advocate
Established in 2004 by the Washington State PTA, the Outstanding Advocate Award recognizes and honors an individual for continued and dedicated service to all children, and a demonstrated commitment to helping create strong policies relating to the health, welfare, safety, and education of children and youth.
We like to acknowledge people who have not been recognized in the recent past. Recipients receive a certificate and pin, and a contribution is made in their name to the Washington State PTA Scholarship Program.
