Grange Hall Elementary third-grade teacher Laura Marshall received a nice treat the day before Halloween. Mrs. Marshall was surprised during a schoolwide assembly with the announcement that she had been chosen to receive a $25,000 Milken Educator Award this year.
Mrs. Marshall was one of just 80 educators across America this year to win the Milken Award, dubbed “the Oscars of teaching.” This is the third time in four years that a Chesterfield County teacher has received a Milken Educator Award. James River High teacher Laura Lay won in 2005, and Chalkley Elementary teacher Joshua Cole won in 2006.
