This week’s Michigan Lottery Excellence in Education winner is Betty L. Clark from Manton High School. Congratulations!
Q: You don’t have to do all these extracurricular activities that you do with the students. Um, why do you go above and beyond?
A: I like to, it’s for them. It can bring a smile to their day, and something they can look forward to. But also for some of the meals that I make and stuff, some kids don’t have home-cooked meals. And so they get a chance to have that, it’s just, it’s worth it. The kids are worth it. They’re the best part of the day.
Betty from Manton High School receives a $2,000 check from Jake Harris with the Michigan Lottery. Excellence in Education awards sponsored by the Michigan Lottery. Providing more than $28 billion to public education since 1972.
