LCSD#2 Parents for Change is a community action group comprised of parents, educators and members of the Burns, Albin, Carpenter and Pine Bluffs area. This group was formed in response to the mask mandate that was imposed upon our students on October 8, 2020. While our group was organized as a result of the mask mandate, that is not our only focus.

‘Tis the season. I don’t know about you, but I’m getting really tired of all the political ads on TV lately. I’m pretty active politically and maybe that’s part of my problem. I’ve been getting between 40-50 emails and text messages every day from candidates around the country wanting me to contribute to their campaign for the last several months. Some I have contributed to in the past and most, I’m sure, purchased my phone number and email address. I encourage everyone to be politically active, but enough is enough already. Fortunately,...
A few weeks ago Linda was rummaging through some boxes and came across a small book, "Hedges, Windbreaks, Shelters and Live Fences", by E. P. Powell. It's a very small book, only about a half inch thick, but full of interesting information. What I found most interesting was the copyright date, 1900, even though the book covered the period 1859 - 1899. It was a pretty quick read overall, even though the writing style of the author caused me to have to go back and reread several portions to...

(Told by Coaches Ashley Rousseau, Cole Manlove, and Ashley Thurin) We had a cold day for the 3A Eastern Regional Meet--the high was only 45, which in Wyoming can feel actually like 45 or could feel like 5. We all packed layers and blankets too. Wyoming wind--always the variable--but today it was a freak snow squall while we were out walking the course that soaked us to the bone and we had to wait it out. Although we were chilled and felt like our fingers would fall off we were so thankful for a great race day with the Eastern Schools. This...
