I wanted to take this opportunity to give you an update on a major topic your Linden-Kildare school board has been working on. The students and faculty of L-K work diligently to grow to produce great productive citizens of Linden, and also strive to represent our community well in extra-curricular events.

It was evening in Chengdu, China on September 11, where I taught English at Sichuan University, twelve hours ahead of Central Time in the US. My son called me from a high-rise office tower in downtown Chicago and told me in a surprisingly calm voice of that day’s horror.
