Link Elementary marked its 40th anniversary in mid-November, according to a Dec. 5 news release from Spring ISD. Current and former students and employees as well as parents attended a “Leopard Family Reunion” to honor the occasion. The school is headed by Principal Tangy Stith.

“We are so honored to celebrate 40 years of excellence here at Link Elementary,” Stith said in a statement. “Though we have much to be proud of over these past four decades, I know that the best is yet to come for Link Elementary with our students and their families.”

Named after SISD’s first school board secretary, Joan Link, the school first opened in 1982 and is located at 2815 Ridge Hollow Drive, Houston. 281-891-8390. www.springisd.org/link2
