*LNE & the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, is hosting a fun ‘FEWSS’ Fair focus program open house at Northeast High School on April 17 from 4:30pm to 7:00pm for students, families, and community members. (FEWSS stands for Food, Energy, Water, and Societal Systems)  

This event will be a great opportunity for families to come together, learn, and explore. We hope attendees of all ages will delve into exciting activities, discover new interests, and ignite curiosity! The FEWSS Fair will hopefully bring awareness to the partnership between CASNR and LNE and all the amazing opportunities we have for students at UNL & CASNR.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t8LL19p7IJxDZ2bWWtAxkhtglJoeQdNc/view?usp=sharing

*6th grade school counselor, Mrs. Hanseling, has a short 4 minute video posted to her Google Classroom reviewing 7th grade course information. Students watched this in class but it’s also available for parents to watch as well. Parents-ask your students to pull it up on their Chromebook for you to view. You can also email me and I can send you a copy of the video. nhansel@lps.org

*On Monday, April 8th  from 3pm-3:30pm, the Missile Market returns to Mickle for food distribution. In partnership with the Lincoln Food Bank, students are able to come to the Mickle west gym after school for this distribution. A Food Bank truck will be stationed at the 7th grade door.   View the Lincoln Food Bank website for more information.

Attention 6th grade families:

School Counselor, Mrs. Hanseling, will be presenting in Humanities classrooms over the next couple weeks. The topic: Look2College. This is a lesson from Education Quest that explores the following questions: What do you want to be? How will you get there? How will you pay for it? After the lesson students will come home with a booklet-please ask them about what they learned and review the booklet with your student. More information can be found here: https://educationquest.org/professionals/grades-6-8-resources/
