TEACHER RECOGNITION
Every year, the Golden Schools Foundation awards two Golden-area teachers with a Teacher Recognition Award. They receive $1,000 to spend in their classrooms, and a beautiful crystal apple to recognize them for their amazing contributions to our schools. Golden Schools Foundation is currently accepting nominations from parents, students, principals or other staff members.
Check back soon - the 2022 recipients will be announced during Teacher Appreciation Week!
