(Michigan City, IN) - The Michigan City Chamber of Commerce is recognizing a local educator. Renee Hall was chosen for this year’s Michigan City Education Award.  Hall is the Guidance Counselor at Lake Hills Elementary School.

 

The annual award is for an educator or program that has made a significant impact on the community over the past year.

 

“Ms. Hall has been a part of Michigan City area schools for more than twenty years and has done so much for not only our school but also the community.
