We believe that we are a part of this new beginning. he is a sophmore this 2010-2011 school year. even with less than 200 students its still a better option than chicago public schools. Leo needs the support of the community. i will my son attends Leo every thing thats been said is true. the reason he is there is because our family believes in the small school in the hood.

You captured the essence of Leo. I know you are an alum, and your perspective was abvious in the love you exhibited. I graduated in 1964. I love Bob Foster, I hope his retirement is going well. One slight correction-the murder you mentioned was Frank Kelly, at 78th & Racine, and happened in August of 1965. I was standing next to Frank when he was shot--he looked at me and said "They got me" I smiled at him He said "no bull", and ran across the street to the front doors of St. Sabina's gym, and died. I ran to the rectory and pounded on the door for Fr. White. Shortly, I joined the Marines with another 78th & Racine friend, Matt. We went to boot camp and Vietnam We are still friends today. Dan, it was great to read that account I just wish that I had been there. Facto non Verba Tom Brann Dan
