The Golden Apple is our district’s highest honor. It is awarded annually to a group of people who have demonstrated their dedication to excellence in education. Winners can be anyone who is helping our children in some capacity.

Selection is made by a committee comprised of individuals from the district, organized according to the Golden Apple Bylaws. Winners each receive the engraved golden apple as well as a cash award from the Foundation.

The Putnam City School Board honors these winners at a meeting preceded by a reception held in their honor for family and friends.
