awards

Journey Elementary School teacher Rebecca Junge stood in front of an auditorium full of her students and peers to accept the Milken Educator Award, which included an unrestricted $25,000 to do with what she wanted.

This was done during the meeting on January 20.

The Natrona County Public Library abolished overdue library fees in June of 2020 and, for this act and many others, they have been awarded the 'Librarian at Your Service Award' by Unique Management Services, an organization dedicated to "material-recovery service for libraries."

In a huge showing, Ned LeDoux, son of the late Chris LeDoux, took four awards, setting the first record for most awards won by a single artist.

This is the gathering that honors not only outstanding work by officers of the department, but civilians who went above and beyond.

And he says, it's a chance to thank those civilians who go above and beyond to help and sometimes, save the lives of others.

The awards ceremony highlighted the behind-the-scenes work at the communications center and those who do tedious investigative and analytical work.

TeBeest provided lifesaving CPR on a man for 15 minutes without relief.

Natrona County Sheriff Gus Holbrook said Serita Estes, and Randy and Rodney "Shane" Kindel courageously went into Alcova Lake and rescuing the two victims.

Congratulations go out to five Natrona County School District teachers to receive the 2015 Fund For Teachers Fellowship Grant. This fellowship will allow NCHS teachers, Mr. Todd Hallsted, Mr. Dan Wright and Mr. Carl Myers, to experience the environmental and cultural dynamics of American Samoa, one of the last places on Earth settled by humans and colonized by Europeans...
