Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
My family has lived within the neighborhood of Long Prairie and Grey Eagle for five generations, so it goes without saying that I care for our community very much. A vote for Kelly Lemke on November 5th will leave our school district and taxpayers vulnerable to civil and legal...
To the Editor:
First, I would like to offer my congratulations to LPGE School Board Chair, Kelly Lemke and the others who voted along with her to dismiss Superintendent Daniel Ludvigson from his position as Superintendent. This issue has been worked on for several months and in the end your goal...
To the Editor:
From the White House to the state house to the courthouse to the schoolhouse to the bird house, the 2024 election will have a very significant impact. Do your best to learn about the candidates and the Minnesota Constitutional amendment and vote.
