The Michigan Lottery has played a big role in funding education in our state, which is why it has teamed up with FOX 47 News to recognize excellent educators state-wide.
Elaine Mahabir, a teacher at Midland High School, is this week's Michigan Lottery Excellence in Education award winner. Her nominator says Elaine is an amazingly effective educator, a phenomenal math teacher who brings joy, life, passion, love and energy.
Elaine was recognized with a $1,500 check from the Michigan Lottery and her class will receive a $500 grant!
The Excellence in Education award is sponsored by the Michigan Lottery, proud to provide more than $20 billion to support public education since 1972!
