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.
Loni Vargas, a teacher at Troy High School, is this week's Michigan Lottery Excellence in Education award winner. Her nominator says she's there morning, noon, and night for her students in need of extra help and says she's the best teacher ever and decided she should have something to show for it that's why she is this week's excellence in education award winner.
Loni 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!
