Thank you to the West Chester American Legion Post 681 for sponsoring so many Lakota East future leaders at Buckeye Girls & Boys State this summer. Special shout out to Mark Reisenberg, for organizing tonight’s dinner & banquet for all the attendees. What a special event!?
Huge thank you to Edge Teen Center’s LaDon Laney & Sela Weaver for introducing all of the Spring 2024 volunteer opportunities to Government students. What a day?!?
I can’t express how thankful I am that a fellow teacher in my building thought of her peers so deeply that she took the time out of her busy ASL (American Sign Language) class schedule to have her students create this thoughtful, collaborative project. Thank you, JG! XX
Thank you, Jack Birdsong, for coming in to speak to all AP US Government students at LEHS. We have some excellent candidates for these three educational opportunities. #Governmench
A HUGE thank you to @EdgeTeenCenter Volunteer Coordinators Sela Weaver & Melissa Rosser, for speaking to all Fall 2023 Government students about the volunteer opportunities available to these future volunteers. We appreciate all you do!
The Lakota East HS 2023 Buckeye Girls & Boys State Attendees Banquet. Thank you, West Chester American Legion Post 681 for sending them to Bowling Green University and Miami University this summer & for honoring our attendees tonight.
Two of my favorites in the LEHS building today: LARRY DUFF (retired East science teacher) subbing across the hall and JACK BIRDSONG presenting educational American Legion programs to my AP Gov students. Both shared stories of being drafted into the Vietnam War, priceless ❤️.
I met a SCOTUS associate justice in 2007 (RBG) and now an Ohio Supreme Court associate justice in 2022 (S.Kennedy). They say getting bit by a shark is more common. Article 3 (judiciary) is my favorite branch & Federalist 78 (Hamilton) is my favorite Federalist Paper.
Browyn Dishun, EDGE Teen Center Volunteer Coordinator, came to speak to all MENCH & Maus US Government classes, Monday, 8/29. Thank you for your continued cooperation with all our volunteers! #GovernMENCH
Last night we celebrated the life of veteran and American Legion member, Mr. Jerry Nelson and honored the 2022 Girls & Boys State attendees from Lakota East & West. The tradition of strong leadership continues!

It was a wonderful evening celebrating the Lakota East delegates of The American Legion West Chester Post 681’s Buckeye Girls & Boys State. These are some impressive, inspiring, young individuals!
I was recognized tonight by all three West Chester Township Trustees. What an honor?!? All made possible by Mr. Jerry Nelson from the West Chester American Legion Post 681. Thank you all. I am grateful.

Thank you Mr. Jerry Nelson (for collaborating with me for so many years) and Mrs. Tera Michelson (for spotlighting me in this article with 5 additional women “Culture Changers”). I continue to do the work.
I am extremely grateful to Mr. Jerry Nelson from West Chester Post 681 & the Ohio American Legion. Saturday, March 3, 2021, was a wonderful evening of celebrations at the American Legion Leadership Banquet.
In last month’s (Jan. ‘21) edition of LEHS’s SPARK, I was featured with 9 other local community influencers. This has been an ever-increasingly difficult school year, so I want to express my gratitude to Shiloh Wolfork for picking me and for this very well-written article.
