This week’s Michigan Lottery Excellence in Education winner is Mikayla Norman from Donley Elementary School in East Lansing. Congratulations!
Q: Tell me what these kids mean to you.
A: The world. My students are so incredible. They aren’t afraid to take risks, they’re super funny, you have to be careful what you ask them, because they will absolutely tell you exactly what they’re feeling. I’ve been doing this for 15 years and I really hope to do it for 15 more.
Mikayla from Donley Elementary School receives a $2,000 check from the lottery commissioner, Suzanna Shkreli.
