Greetings! My name is Linda Trocke. I have taught for 16 years but this is my 2nd year teaching at Prairie Trail School.I received my undergraduate degree at Southern Illinois University and my graduate degree at National Louis University in Elgin, IL. I am very excited to be at PTS and to be working with such great students and their families. Teaching is truly my passion. When I am not teaching, I love spending time with friends and family. I have two sons. One is still in high school and the other attends Southern Illinois University, my alma mater. My hobbies include reading, biking, and relaxing on my patio.
