Technology Student Association - Valley Region
The Appleseeds Foundation recognizes the Technology Student Association (TSA) as an essential component in the education of our young people. The individuals who participate in the TSA programs are our link to a brighter future for America.
Therefore, the Appleseeds Foundations has established the
The Appleseeds Technology Awards
to promote technology learning in our local public schools.
We resolve to award cash prizes to those school chapters of TSA in the Valley Region who show the best performance at the Virginia State Technosphere conference.
Since establishing this program, The Appleseeds Technology Awards has awarded more than $70,000 to the TSA departments of winning schools.
A total of $6,000 was awarded in 2023
A total of $6,000 was awarded in 2022
Due to the Wuhan Virus pandemic, there was no TSA in the 2019/2020 school year.
