The Linne Roar
Parent / School Edition
Principally Speaking...
As Thanksgiving approaches, we have so much to be thankful for! I would like to take this opportunity to thank our teachers and staff for their unwavering commitment to the academic and social-emotional development of each of our students. Your determination in seeking the necessary resources for our students is to be admired. Your work is admirable and we feel proud and thankful to have the most talented staff in the Chicago Public Schools. I would also like to thank our LSC, PAC, BAC, & Friends of Carl Von Linne for supporting us along the way and always putting children first. You are key stakeholders to our school community and truly valuable to the work we do. Finally, we are thankful for the parents that have kept their faith in us. You continue to share your most precious children with us and work hard to be a partner in their development and education. I firmly believe that your support has been crucial in the growth we see as a school from year to year. For that, we are ever thankful! I would like to wish all of you and your families a happy, healthy, and relaxing Thanksgiving holiday!
