Donald Arthur LaPlante

If there is a study hall above I am sure I will sent there

He was so caring and kind to students. A gracious man..

Mr. LaPlante was so awesome. A great teacher, I loved his class and I didn't even like history! A fun coach and a wonderful person. We will miss you dearly.

Mr. LaPlante was not only a teacher, troubleshooter and coach, he was also a friend. To me Mr. LaPlante was Mr. Northest. He was one of the people that made attending Northwest High School the wonderful experiences that it was.

I guess I have known Mr. LaPlante 50 years now, how time flies. Over the years I have seen him at several...

Rest in peace Don LaPlante.. You will be missed..

May the great memories that we have of Mr. LaPlante remain in our hearts forever. He impacted many lives a great teacher and educator but also a friend to many

Our prayers to the LaPlante family. Coach LaPlante was my varsity football coach at Northwest high school. He was a good man who cared for us. Tuff but very supportive. He was also courageous as hr injected himself in a "crime in process" at the school one day. He protected the kids in the gym that day. He made an impact on my life.
