Utah PTA / KUED "Golden Apple Award"

Golden Apple Awards are a joint project of Utah PTA and KUED. Utah PTA appreciates the sponsorship of KUED in our efforts to recognize outstanding teachers and volunteers.

Two types of Golden Apple Awards are given each year - Golden Apple Award for Outstanding Educator and Golden Apple for Outstanding Volunteer.

The Golden Apple Award for Outstanding Educators recognizes a professional educator currently working with students in grades preschool to 12th. Six winners will be selected based on their relationship with students, parents, PTA and the community.

The Golden Apple Award for Outstanding Volunteers is given to a volunteer who renders volunteer service to children through the education system. Nominees will be considered on the basis of quality as well as quantity of volunteer commitment.

Ideas from Locals

Region 12, Nancy Cammans:

"When I served as President at our local level, the PTA purchased books from the Book Fair and stamped the inside "IN HONOR OF PTA VOLUNTEER HOURS" this book is donated to Castle Heights Elementary Library.

The Volunteers were invited to sign their names on the inside covers of the books at our Volunteer Appreciation. They seemed to enjoy this more than a personal gift".
