Germain Toyota of Sarasota Congratulate Vivian Stornes As School Employee Of The Year

Online, May 22, 2012 (Newswire.com) - As the 2012 Sarasota County School District Employee of Year Vivian Stornes was receiving her well-deserved award, Germain Toyota of Sarasota was on hand to give Ms. Stornes a token of their appreciation. Stornes, who works as an aide to special-needs children (specifically autism) at Lamarque, was given the keys to a brand new red Toyota Corolla LE which is hers to drive for the next year courtesy of Germain Toyota of Sarasota. As Lead Sponsor of the School-Related Employee of the Year program for six straight years, Germain Toyota generously contributes to those who are making an effort to improve the community through education.

"Wow! I never expected this," said Ms. Stornes upon receiving the award. "I see people here who affect so many children's lives every day, so this is a great honor."

"Vivian has one of the most challenging but rewarding support assignments in education," said Lamarque Principal Sally Mancheno. "She understands the needs of our students with autism and respects and celebrates each one of them as individuals."

Germain Toyota of Sarasota awarded Ms. Stornes a 2012 Toyota Corolla that has proven to be almost as hard-working and reliable as she is. As one of the models that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has deemed a "Top Safety Pick" and receiving four out of five stars on both front and rollover tests from the National Highway Safety Administration, the Corolla has a lot to offer drivers in the way of safety. Standard features include six airbags, anti-lock brakes, electronic brake force-distribution, and brake assist.
