Littleton Chevrolet’s Teacher Giveaway – Pamela Atkinson – Littleton High School – Life Skills Teacher

WE LOVE AND SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS —— Littleton Chevrolet’s $5000 Teacher Giveaway – At Littleton Chevrolet, we understand the commitment and dedication that all of our teachers in our community and beyond put into every single day, hour, minute and second to encourage their students to see those victories and to have them grow their confidence. This week this truly dedicated young lady who has made it her mission for over 30 years to mold and allow her students to succeed with small and large wins. Patricia Atkinson who received a dual degree in Education and Human Services. She has been teaching Life Skills at Littleton High School since 2019. Starting her teaching career in Northern NH she has moved around based on being close to home for her children. She spent 5 years at the Davenport School in Jefferson and mentioned that was one school she loved and she loved the program. The school closed and that is when she found her new home at Littleton HIgh School. She is so passionate about watching her students shine. She never gives up on them. She loves kids and wants them to win in life. When asked what she was thought when she saw the post, Pamela said ” I was appreciative of the opportunity but it will be a long shot. If I did win, I would purchase some specific furniture for my students. A better way for them to learn and feel comfortable when they do their work. To her surprise prior to the drawing, Pamela found out that the school had written a grant and they were blessed with $10,000. Pamela could not believe it. With that money she did purchase all of the new furniture, new desks and chairs, washer and dryer and a dish washer. When Pamela found out that she won our giveaway, she got with the students to see what they could do with the money. They asked if they could open a school store. Pamela thought this was an amazing idea. This would allow the students to work with the public, understand cashiering and money, purchasing inventory, budgeting and much more. Pam has reached out to administration for approval. It should be a go but a few more details need to be worked out. When asked what she loves about her job, she replied ” I truly love to see those smiles when a student gets what they are working on. It is building their confidence to got out when they graduate and be a productive member of the community. I also love it when they leave, they still connect with me. I want to know what they are doing. If they need anything, I will be there for them. One other item that I would wish for…I wish that there was more time in the day. The day go by so fast and it is challenging and fun at the same time. I just want more time my students.” We are so excited for you and excited to see how the school store gives the students encouragement and confidence towards their independence. Congratulations Pamela. Everyone at Littleton Chevrolet is proud of what you do. We are behind you. #weloveourteachers
