Comments:

Enjoyed teaching in Lincolnwood for 36 years, 5th through 8th grade.

Favorite Lane Memory:

Wearing black and white and playing cello in the semi-annual musical concerts.

Current Interests:

Calming down.

Accomplishments Since Graduation:

I've spent a lot of time on my education. I'm proud that my BS in Social Policy is from Northwestern (hey, Cisco!), I have a Master's degree in Gifted Education from National-Louis University, and an Educational Leadership Master's from Concordia University in Educational Leadership. I've got two adult children, a female engineer and a male nanny.

How did Lane Tech influence your life?

I was fortunate to go to, at that time, to the best public high school in Chicago. I met fabulous friends that I'm in contact with to this day. I love reading the Alumni Newsletter, of which I'm a life-long member. Also, my writing teacher at Lane (Ms. Coogan) taught me to NOT start every sentence with I, I, I.

Hi Janet, Kevin Sheldon told me you contacted him about accommodations. I have two suggestions:

Best Western Plus Hawthorne Terrace, 3434 N. Broadway, www.hawthorneterrace.com, $172, free breakfast, AAA, would drive west three miles to LTHS

Chicago Marriot O'Hare, 8535 W. Higgins Road, would get right on 94 to go south to LTHS

Hope to see you there, Wendy Wharton Kotrba
