Every week we will try to showcase some important people that you may not know who contribute to the success of Lake Bluff.

Mr. Thor, as he is affectionately known, works in the cafeteria through our food service company Aramark. He is the smiling face that feeds our children. He is always there with a cheerful hello, greeting students by name as he serves breakfast and lunch. Mr. Thor's children are in 10th and 12th grade at SHS and are Lake Bluff graduates.

Mr.Thor's Fun Fact: Mr. Thor can read and write Elvish. If you are a Lord of the Rings fan, you will be thoroughly impressed!
