Volunteers are an integral part of View Ridge – between PTA committee positions, room parents and classroom volunteers, over 125 parents volunteer significant amounts of time each year to our school and kids. As a local PTA unit, we present a Golden Acorn Award each year 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. A contribution in the name of the recipient(s) is made by the honoring PTA to the Washington State PTA Scholarship program. From these contributions, WSPTA is able to provide grants to freshmen students entering post-secondary education.
ہمارے والدین رضاکاروں کی طرح، ہمارے اساتذہ اور عملہ بھی ابتدائی تجربے کو بہترین بنانے کے لیے ہر سال کلاس کے وقت سے باہر سینکڑوں گھنٹے کا حصہ ڈالتے ہیں۔ ہر سال، PTA View Ridge کے استاد یا اسٹاف ممبر کو سکول کمیونٹی کے ممبر کے طور پر اوپر اور آگے جانے کے لیے Joan Platt "Awesome Otter" ایوارڈ پیش کرتا ہے۔ وصول کنندگان کو ان تختیوں پر نوازا جاتا ہے جو دالان اور مرکزی دفتر میں لٹکی ہوتی ہیں۔
Please help us continue this great tradition by nominating a parent and/or staff member for these awards. Submit nominations by Friday, May 4 to Jill Yamagiwa (vicepresident@viewridgeschool.org). Please provide a brief explanation of their extraordinary work and why they stand out. Winners will be acknowledged at the Tuesday, May 15 PTA General Meeting.
