Mr. LaChance

7th-8th Grade Teacher

Mr. Brandon LaChance has been teaching at N.R.C.C.S since 2009.  A native of Minnnesota, he moved to Colorado Springs after college to enjoy the Colorado outdoors and skiing.  That is where he met his wife, Mandy.  It was a dream of both to move up to Routt County.  Instantly, Mr. LaChance knew this is his long-term home. With the amazing beauty,  fishing, and hunting; how could a person ever leave this amazing community and country. Mr. LaChance has a passion to see students’ make growth each year. He works hard for each student and will do anything to have a student succeed.

Mr. LaChance’s other passion is being in the outdoors. He enjoys back-country trips, fishing, mountain biking, hunting and everything else that in North Routt . This includes snowplowing over 400+ inches of snow each year. As he says ” you got to learn how to play in all this snow.”  In the summer you will find Mr. LaChance at Steamboat Lake or exploring a new corner of the wilderness.
