Today’s overachieving teacher is Lawna Kurtyka. She is planning on using the money to assist her students with testing fees and to recognize the seniors as they are accepted to college! Read what she wrote below.

“I would love to have $500 to spend on my AVID juniors and seniors. AVID stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination. AVID works with students who might be first-generation college students or students who are traditionally underrepresented on college campuses. I would use this money to assist our students with testing fees (ACT/AP) and to recognize our seniors as they are accepted to college.”
