MISSOULA – This week’s One Class at a Time winner is Washington Elementary School 6th grade teacher Lissa Olinger.

KPAX-TV General Manager Bob Hermes presented her with a $250 check, sponsored by Republic Services and KPAX-TV.

Olinger is using the money to purchase maps for her history class students, saying they will use them to explore and discuss the impact of geography both historically and in present day.

“I hope the students are able to have a well-rounded discussions around how geography impacts this area, not just in the past, but currently,” Olinger said.
