Livermore High Teacher Honored By Barnes and Noble

LIVERMORE, CA: A Livermore High teacher was honored after he was nominated by a student for the “My Favorite Teacher” contest hosted by Barnes and Noble.

As part of Barnes and Noble's annual Educator Appreciation Week, the popular bookseller allows students nationwide to submit essays about the teacher who has had the most influence in their life.

"Livermore High School senior Moustafa Hassen submitted this year’s winning essay with his nomination of Mr. Ed Woodworth, who is the Autoshop, Robotics and Metal Shop teacher at Livermore High School," school district officials said. "Moustafa’s essay makes Mr. Woodworth the winner for our region, which stretches from Walnut Creek to Fremont and out to Tracy."

The awards ceremony was held at the Dublin Barnes and Noble location at noon on Sunday.
