National Teachers' Night Drawing

8/23/2018

In honor of National Teachers’ Night, which was August 16, the Habitat for Humanity La Crosse Area ReStore held a Facebook contest. Anyone could comment to nominate their favorite teachers to be entered into a drawing to win a gift package straight from the ReStore. We had a huge level of participation. It was heart-warming to see so much support for the teachers in our community.

Our drawing winner was Tom Sullivan. He won a sign for his classroom, a ReStore gift certificate and a planter painted as an apple. When he came in to the ReStore to claim his well-deserved prize, we were able to learn a bit more about him.


Sullivan has been at Northside Elementary all 24 years of his teaching career, with a brief transfer to Logan Middle School while the building was being redone. He teaches 5th grade, and his favorite thing about the job is how fun the kids are.
​
He was able to take a fun summer trip to Canada with his son and brother. That doesn’t keep him from being excited for this new school year, though. Sullivan is most looking forward to getting to know his new students and establishing trust with them. Building good relationships is the best way to make progress in the classroom, Sullivan says.
