English teacher and head baseball coach Christopher Laughland has been hitting it out of the park for students and colleagues at Walden Grove High School. So—with some help from President and CEO of the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching Dr. Gary Stark (AR '01), State Superintendent John Huppenthal and District Superintendent Dr. Manuel Valenzuela (AZ '98)—the Milken Educator Awards threw him a $25,000 curve ball he never saw coming!

  • Mr. Laughland - hearing the students chant your name at the close of the video was one of the most beautiful sounds I've heard this year! Their acknowledgement of your honor must have warmed your heart. The teaching profession is enhanced by educators like yourself. Thank you for putting children first and for your commitment to teaching and learning.
