Tonda Elementary kindergarten teacher Michelle Moloche had a few surprise visitors in her classroom last week. Michigan State Rep. Ranjeev Puri, who was joined by Plymouth Canton Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Monica Merritt and Tonda Principal Dave Turrill, brought Meloche a special award naming her 'Teacher of the Month' for the region. Puri selects a winner each month during the school year based on nominations from constituents.
