In Memory of Kathryn

"Summer" Arrives at Naper Elementary School -                                 A Tribute to Kathryn


Kathryn’s dream was to become a teacher.  One teacher that made a special impact on Kathryn was her first grade teacher, Mrs. Shinkle, at Naper Elementary School.
 
After Kathryn’s passing, Mrs. Shinkle and other staff members, both past and present, wanted to do something special for Kathryn and her family.  The staff decided to place a special tribute for Kathryn in the school’s library.  This tribute includes an Isabel Bloom statue entitled “Summer”, which is a young girl with yellow flowers in her lap, and a framed kindergarten and senior year picture of Kathryn.
 
Kathryn will forever be a part of Naper school.
