Sunday, June 19, 2011 THE “DALLAS POST PAGE 11 VISIT Continued from Page 3 to come back,” said Dewees, a Gate of Heaven parent. About 200 attendees en- ( joyed a picnic-style lunch during the event and viewed old photographs and memor- abilia from the school. Local Boy Scout troops associated with Gate of Heaven will use the collected photographs to make a commemorative DVD this summer, according to Cub Scout Pack 232 coor- dinator Amy Huntington. Many of those who attend- ed the Open House just wanted an opportunity’ to meet with fellow former Ga- tors and reminisce on the school’s history. Carol Carroll, of Dallas, was a kindergarten aide at the school for nine years while her sons attended the elementary school until 1998. “I even had withdrawal then,” she said. “It’s sad (that the school is closing).” She said the school was a tight-knit kinship, and it’s that feeling she will miss the most. “It’s a place where people who never knew each other before became family,” Car- roll said. Barbara Ann Evans, of Dal- las, is a 1964 graduate of the @ which she credits with instilling her with confi- dence. “It gave me the ‘I can do what I think I want to do,” she said of the school’s last- ing impression. Parents of current students wandered the halls during the Open House, led by their little ones to see art projects and science displays. A sign posted on a wall in one hall- way summed up the event's message: “Thanks for the memories.” . Gator parent John Hornle, of Dallas, wanted to say “thank you” back. “I'm here to say good-bye to the good people I've met over x S50 : years,” he said. : Ea SCHOOL BRIEFS LL Foundation offers Zumba classes The Lake-Lehman Founda- tion, in cooperation with the Lake-Lehman School District, is offering Zumba classes at 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday in the Lehman- Jackson Elementary cafeteria.
