A Tribute to the Late Evelyn Alexander.
Happy birthday to Mrs. Evelyn Alexander!
For over 60 years, Mrs. Evelyn Alexander was a beacon of dedication and inspiration in our North Chicago community. Her volunteer work, service on school boards, and teaching left an enduring legacy of commitment to education at D187. These are some reasons why the School Board honored her by renaming a North Chicago school in her memory. Her service continues to impact this community and will for many years to come.
Let's honor the memory of the amazing Evelyn Alexander, whose positive impact on North Chicago and School District 187 will continue to inspire future generations.
