All Green Apple donations will directly support District 58 students
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected how Downers Grove Grade School District 58 educates its students. Yet, the District’s teachers and staff rose to the challenge and worked tirelessly to provide the best possible instruction for their students given the circumstances. Now more than ever, District 58 is proud to celebrate its hard working teachers and staff during this American Education Week, Nov. 16-20, 2020.
In honor of American Education Week, the Education Foundation of Downers Grove District 58 invites families to thank a special teacher or staff member with a donation to its Green Apple Teacher/Staff Recognition Program.
With each Green Apple donation received, the Education Foundation will send a specially-designed Green Apple Award card to the teacher or staff member the donation is honoring, with a custom message from the donor.
All donations will support the Education Foundation’s programs, which include the Teacher Grants Program, Distinguished Service Awards, Select 58, Sneak Preview, New Teacher Luncheon, The Reading Games and more.
Green Apple donations and messages may be submitted online at https://www.58foundation.net/green-apple-awards through a two-step process. First, fill out a form with a personal message. Then, click the chalkboard graphic on the page to make the Green Apple donation. All donations are tax-deductible. Please send questions to green.apple@58foundation.org. While the Green Apple Program is open year-round, if you would like your Green Apple Award to be delivered before winter break, please submit your donation by Friday, Dec. 11.
Thank you for supporting the District 58 Education Foundation!
American Education Week annually encourages Americans to celebrate public education and the most influential teachers and staff members in their children’s lives. Please consider celebrating this special week with a Green Apple Award for a favorite teacher or staff member!
