Golden Apple Pencil Case Pouch

Golden Apple is committed to making a material difference in resolving the teacher shortage through its Scholars and Accelerators programs by expanding the state’s pipeline of highly effective educators by inspiring, developing, and supporting teacher and school leader excellence in Illinois, especially in schools-of-need.

Our leading-edge education preparation through the Golden Apple Scholars of Illinois Program delivers exceptional teachers who make an impact from day one. We help students - in Illinois and beyond - thrive in the classroom and in life.

Golden Apple elevates the teaching and school leadership professions through recognition of master teachers and school leaders with the Golden Apple Awards for Excellence in Teaching & Leadership. Award recipients play an important role in preparing the next generation of teachers by providing instruction and mentorship to future teachers in the Golden Apple Scholars and Accelerators programs.

For every pencil case sold, funds will go to support Golden Apple's Scholars and Accelerators programs, which are growing to become material solutions to the teacher shortage in Illinois.
