Local Units may order Golden
Acorn awards, Honorary Life Membership awards, Outstanding Advocate, and
Outstanding Educator awards may be ordered at http://store.wastatepta.org/. These
awards may be purchased by either check or credit card with a portion of the
funds contributed to the WSPTA Scholarship Program. From these contributions,
WSPTA is able to provide grants to freshman students entering post-secondary
education.
- A Golden Acorn Award is presented, by a local PTA unit or
council, to a volunteer in recognition of his/her dedication and service to
children and youth. Since the beginning of this program, more than 44,000
Golden Acorns have been presented to volunteers throughout Washington State.
- The purpose of the Honorary Life Membership is
to recognize an individual who has contributed significantly to a PTA at the
local unit, council, or state level. This award can be given by a PTA unit,
council, or region.
- The Outstanding Advocate Award recognizes
and honors individuals for their advocacy work on behalf of children and
youth. This award can be given by a PTA unit, council, or region. There is
also a separate Outstanding Student Advocate award available.
- The Outstanding Educator Award recognizes
individuals who have provided outstanding educational opportunities for
children and youth that are beyond the normal scope of their jobs.
