Apple describes the Distinguished Schools program:
“Apple Distinguished Schools are centers of leadership and educational excellence that demonstrate Apple’s vision for learning with technology — and we believe they are some of the most innovative schools in the world.”
As of November 2024, Apple reported that there were 889 Apple Distinguished Schools in 37 countries. The district where I serve as an educational technology leader is proud to have three Apple Distinguished Schools.
This Apple logo lapel pin is violet, a shade of purple matching one of the stripes on Apple’s classic six-color logo. The pin package is wrapped in clear plastic and attached to a 3 x 3-inch black cardboard backing that is printed in white with the words [Apple logo] Distinguished School.
The pin is made from metal with a polished chrome finish. The pin is approximately 2 mm thick, 3/4-inch across, and 7/8-inch tall. The pin is held in place from the back by a silver butterfly clutch.
