PTA is a volunteer organization. Each year, PTAs have the opportunity to recognize and thank their volunteers through individual awards. The culmination of these awards is the Everett PTSA Council Awards Celebration.
The Timeline and Tips document (link below) is a suggested timeline that will assist your PTA in organizing the nomination process, presentation and celebration of your Golden Acorns, Outstanding Educators, Outstanding Advocates, Outstanding Student Advocates and Honorary Life Membership recipients. Please keep in mind deadlines for nominations, ordering awards, and presentations. The Everett PTSA Council looks forward to celebrating your volunteers at the annual Awards Celebration on May 21, 2020.

Each year Everett PTSA Council recognizes volunteers and educators who have given outstanding, continued and dedicated service to our children. These deserving recipients go “above and beyond”, and their efforts reach beyond the usual school boundaries. This is your opportunity to participate in the selection of our award recipients by nominating candidates for consideration by our award committee. Nominations can come from PTAs, parents, staff members, students, or community members.
The Everett PTSA Council Awards are presented at the annual council banquet in May. Nominations are accepted for all awards, though each award may not be presented annually. The awards committee is appointed by the President, and typically consists of past recipients. For all of the WSPTA Awards, a contribution in the name of the recipient is made by the Everett PTSA Council to the Washington State PTA Scholarship Program. From these contributions, WSPTA is able to provide grants to freshman students entering post-secondary education.
We are looking for your nominations for our dedicated volunteers, hardworking educators and advocates, engaged student advocates and outstanding community organizations.
