Questions

Favorite High School Memory: Going to France summer after junior year. The group of us that went were in French together for a very long time. We frolicked through Nice and then the Loire Valley and finally Paris.

Favorite High School Class: Tough call. How about top three? French with Madame, AP Euro with Mr. Brandon or Sophomore Lit with Mr. Willard.

Favorite High School Activity: I was not prolific; so I'd have to say cheerleading.

In 2002, I spent my weekends: Watching a movie on someone's couch.

In 2011, I spend my weekends: Watching a movie on my couch, drinking some homebrew with my husband and his family up here in Chicago.

Any other thoughts to add about LHS or the Class of 2002?

LHS and West County are singular places. Teaching in Chicago, I have to acknowledge the ridiculous amounts of privilege we were granted. This daily dichotomy makes me thankful for the great opportunities I was afforded at LHS.

What I am up to now

I live up in Chicago with my wonderful husband and a funny dog.
