Each week, the Michigan Lottery recognizes an outstanding K-12 teacher who is making a significant impact in the lives of students. Mrs. Russell was selected and received a $1500 cash prize and a $500 grant to the educator's classroom, school or district. The $500 grant for the school was used to purchase a LCD projector and a giant blow up movie screen for the students at Eyler Elementary. A day to celbrate with the students is being planned for later this month.
