Dear Linwood Elementary Families,

It is with great excitement that I join the amazing staff of Linwood Elementary as your new principal. I have devoted my career to educating, inspiring, and advocating for students, as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and building principal. I am eager to bring my enthusiasm and experience to LES. Building strong relationships with the staff, students, and families is the foundation for ensuring students are celebrated and supported. 

I look forward to listening to your ideas and collaborating with each of you to support our sense of community here at LES. As your principal, I will strive to ensure that all families feel welcomed and connected to our school family. Together we will continue our tradition of excellence and community that makes Linwood Elementary the “best kept secret” of the Basehor-Linwood School District. Please feel free to contact me by email or by calling LES at 913-724-2323.   

With Bulldog Pride,

Kathy McBride
