WSPTSA Awards of Excellence

​The purpose of the Local PTA  Awards of Excellence program is to celebrate the work PTAs do to make a difference for their communities. Awards and programs also help build awareness of the WSPTA mission and focus. When local PTAs are recognized for the work they are doing, it builds pride in the community and helps people connect with PTA!
The Outstanding PTA of the Year Award identifies and honors those PTAs that, when compared to all others in their unique environment and within their own special circumstances, are the most representative examples of PTAs that exemplify the purposes and mission of PTA. There are three categories: Elementary and Secondary/Community PTA/Council.

The Standards of Excellence Award is a tool that encourages the use of the best practices of PTA management.  It guides our PTA  to be child focused, responsible to your members, fiscally responsible, knowledgeable, involved, and well trained.

The Outstanding Website Award recognizes local PTA websites as effective forms of communication.
Picture
The Outstanding Newsletter recognizes local PTA and council newsletters as they are an important and effective form of communication.
Picture
The Outstanding Communications Strategy Award recognizes local PTA and council use of all forms of communication. Use of multiple forms of communication is important in reaching all of the membership and/or community served.
Picture
The 100% Staff Membership Award is presented to local PTAs that enroll at least as many school staff members as there are full-time certificated employees at the school. This award recognizes the value of teachers and school staff as stakeholders advocating for all children through PTA membership.
