The Minnesota Noices

Back-to-School

After a summer of R and R plus a confidence boost from her latest theatrical success, Lil returns to ISLK tomorrow, eager for independence and feeling ready to go back to a familiar space with familiar faces.

She says it’s fine with her that Hil graduated from ISLK and will be going to Secondary School (like high school or university prep) at Katedralskolan. This school is also in Lund, a bit closer to our house but in the opposite direction of ISLK.

Though it was founded as the Cathedral school in 1085 by the Danish King Canute the Saint, it is a public school and no longer affiliated with the church. Read more about Katedralskolan here.

There are fewer nerves this year, even for H, because she has several friends who are in the same diploma program.

There are six “schools” housed at Katedralskolan, so even though there are 1500 students, it probably won’t feel too big, especially compared to Central High in Saint Paul which had 3,000 kids.

We are all looking forward to seeing inside these historic buildings, alas, coronavirus restrictions are limiting any unnecessary visits. But I might find a good reason to go over there soon!
