VA Milken Educators Welcome Caroline Eschenbach

 

 

Visiting dignitaries give Milken Educator Award recipient Caroline Eschenbach a hand with her oversized $25,000 check. "I cannot tell you how hard it's been to keep this secret," Virginia Superintendent of Public Instruction Dr. James Lane tells Eschenbach. "Students, you have one of the very best teachers in all of America. We are so thankful to have her here in Roanoke."
