Thank you all so much for your nominations for this year's Golden Acorn Award.
Congratulations and thank you to this year’s recipient, Erin Senge! Here are just a few testimonials on why she deserved this recognition: "Erin Senge has been a leader of ME PTSA in the toughest of times; throughout the pandemic she strived with her small team to bring projects and encouragement to the Mukilteo Elementary community. She brought our PTSA a sense of continuity to grow again as she guided new members in the process. Erin’s passion for the Art Docents and Nature Guides has grown increasing support for these programs, as she encouraged all classes to have volunteers. She persuaded me to shadow her in one of her Art Docent lessons as I expressed hesitancy in being able to teach art. She has created many beautiful graphics for our programs, including the logo for our Nature Guides program. She has also created many engaging, information-rich art lessons throughout the years, some which are viewable on the website. She has sought to be a bridge for our ME community in explaining the history behind each of the programs our PTSA supports. Sometimes her work has been invisible as she moved forward paperwork and projects of her predecessors to create a uniform platform for future leaders. I feel her persistence and resilience deserves the Golden Acorn Award." "Erin encompasses all that it means to be a selfless volunteer. In the nearly 2 years that she had been PTA President, she helped make Mukilteo Elementary PTSA an organization that parents wanted to be a part of. All of the events and programs that she helped bring back and all of the events and programs that she added has brought so much enrichment to our ME community. Beyond just leading this PTSA, she has been a HUGE advocate for students everywhere. Her passion, kindness, energy, and warmth inspires everyone around her to be better. This community is a better place because Erin is a part of it!" Your voices have been heard & accounted for! Votes were in and we are pleased to announce our upcoming M.E.
