Threat Over Cougar Shooting Alarms School
The principal of Audubon Elementary, at 3500 N. Hoyne Ave., said someone was upset over the shooting of the cougar on April 14 on the next block south, and wrote a threatening letter to the school.
He would be a breath of fresh air.
They had a great time. And are expecting our students this summer!

I want to personally thank
Mr. Goodman
Ms. McGee
Mr. Arzate
Ms. Clark
Mr. Jarosek
Ms. Fenwick and her students!
And especially Mr. Trotter our principal for having the vision and giving me the directive to pursue international partnerships and exchange initiatives.
My dream is to one day connect all four of our partner schools: Hyde Park, Durango, Cameroon, Tanzania.
Maybe our students will be able to study and in turn the foreign students be able to study in rotation at all these schools throughout the year studying the same curriculum but in a different culture!
If you are interested in helping out please Send email .

Dr. Kugler
are you the same Kugler that people attack here on the blog?
This is usual in CPS and CTU. When you do good and work for the students you make others look bad so you become the enemy.
Keep up the fight. Maybe one day I will be brave enough to use my name when making comments.
Thanks for not being afraid of the bullies.
I can't find your email address. Send me an email; I want to talk about Industrial Design programs with you.

Paul Vallas made a hot buttered mess of CPS - he's the first bean counter instead of an educator. He went to Philadelphia and made teacher's lives miserable. Now he's in the Crescent City, vilifying teachers and presiding over a fully privatized school system. We don't need him back in Illinois.
As long as he remains a scumbag democrat he will never get the nomination.
It seems he pissed off the mayor some how .If he was a Republican he would
Already be Governor, if he changes party he might win.
