Growing Up Lapeer: Teachers
All teachers have the opportunity to shape young minds and hearts, providing building blocks that students can use to construct a lifetime of experiences.

Growing Up Lapeer: Downtown
I remember riding into downtown Lapeer for the first time and noticing the cars were all parked against the sidewalk diagonally. I don't know why that impressed me.
