Thank you to all of our winners. You help make Evergreen Middle School a very special place in our community.

Golden Acorn  

This is the highest award the PTSA gives to honor an individual who has consistently demonstrated outstanding service to all children in the Evergreen community.  This award recipient has made the commitment to helping children and youth in many areas of the community, over and above the responsibilities of an office or job.  A contribution will be made by our PTSA in the name of the Golden Acorn Award recipient to the Washington State PTA Grant Foundation which in turn funds scholarships to high school seniors for post-secondary education. 

Golden Eagle

This award is unique to our school community.  It was established in 1995 to recognize those individuals who have demonstrated excellence in their continued and dedicated service to students at EMS.  An individual receiving this award is a positive role model.  He or she goes above and beyond the call to encourage the success of our students, in turn making Evergreen a better place for all.

Outstanding Educator Award

This unique Washington State PTA award recognizes any school or community member who does an exceptional job of providing educational opportunities for our students.  An educator may be defined as a teacher, assistant, custodian, bus driver, administrator, or PTSA/community member.  This person is a positive role model for our students who goes beyond the normal scope of their job to create an outstanding educational environment.  Evergreen PTSA will make a donation in the name of the recipient of this award to the Washington State PTA Grant Foundation for post secondary education scholarships.

Walter J. Ferguson Award
