After graduating from St. James I attended Prospect High School with 7 other SJS Alumni. After Prospect, went to Harper for 2 years, then on to University of WI, graduated in 1992...got married in 1994 to Carl Leno (graduated from Rolling Meadows) and was married for 14 years. I have stayed in Arlington Heights...as a matter of fact only 6 houses away from SJS. I have worked for the Itasca Park District for 15 years and am currently on the Arlington Heights Park District Board of Commissioners. My 5 kids are the love of my life and ironically...4 of them attend school at SJS now. When the oldest started, Mr. McCafferty was still the Principal too!!!! And now, the ones still left are Mrs. Driscoll, Sister Carmel (as a helper) and yes my mother, Mrs. Healy!!!!!! Very weird when you are talking to your own past teachers about your current kids; especially when your kindergartener makes a fake bus pass, gets past the sub teacher into the bus line, past the bus driver, takes the bus and is missing for 45 minutes as Mrs. Healy (grandma) is looking for her and mom too, cuz we live 6 houses away and walk!!!!!! That was great sitting across from McCafferty and explaining that one!!! Especially when Mom assisted her in making it that morning!!!!...and on a sad note, those who knew my dad, he died unexpectantly in Sept 2005, at 61, of Pancreatic Cancer.
