With the challenges of remote work and e-learning in 2020, families are particularly aware of how essential teachers are in making learning possible this year. The Illinois Lottery is sharing its appreciation for teachers and celebrating their efforts by gifting wreaths adorned with holiday instant tickets to Rockford educators.
“We wanted to brighten this holiday season for some of our hardworking teachers,” said Harold Mays Acting Director of the Illinois Lottery. “The Illinois Lottery supports schools with funding through the Common School Fund, and we wanted to express gratitude to teachers who have worked tirelessly to continue providing opportunities and education for our children in a particularly challenging year.”
