GOLDEN ACORN AWARD

Each year the Maple Hills PTA presents Golden Acorn and Outstanding Advocate Awards to people who go “above and beyond” for our students at Maple Hills. Recipients of these awards are volunteers who promote the mission of the PTA: to be a “powerful voice for all children, a relevant resource for families and communities, and a strong advocate for the well-being and education of every child.”

 

The Outstanding Advocate Award honors an individual for continued and dedicated service to children and a demonstrated commitment to helping create strong policies relating to the health, welfare, safety, and education of children. Volunteers who speak for students, or try to influence change for their benefit are considered advocates. Nominees for this award can be a PTA member, community member, teacher, assistant, or administrator.

 

Nominees are scored using a weighted rubric considering volunteer service to the PTA, Maple Hills Elementary School, the District and Community. Award recipients will be honored at the Issaquah PTSA district reception.

 

Golden Acorn and Outstanding Advocate awards are Washington State PTA awards. More information can be found at http://www.wastatepta.org/resources/awards/index.html.

 

Nomination forms are due by Friday, February 24th, and can be delivered to the Award Nomination Box in the front office, sent via kid mail in an envelope marked PTA Awards, or emailed to Jessica Howe at vicepresident@maplehillspta.com.
