But there's more to the story, which everyone realizes when Atkinson introduces Dr. Jane Foley, senior vice president of the Milken Educator Awards. In a shocking turn of events, Foley and Atkinson present fourth-grade math teacher Amanda Robertson with North Carolina's 2016-17 Milken Educator Award and $25,000, making the day one Robertson will remember forever.
