Administration Reports
7-12 Principal Spring sports are underway - 17 out for HS Track, 34 out for JH Track, and 10 out for Golf (39% of the student body 7-12)
NSCAS is in full swing and most of our students have completed their testing. We’ll be wrapping up in the next couple of weeks. ACT testing happened on March 24. We’ll get test scores back in 6-8 weeks. We received Pre-ACT test scores for the 8, 9, and 10th graders. This will give those students the opportunity to look at their scores and see areas that they need to focus on before they take the ACT when they are Juniors. On March 21, the Edgerton Explorit Center was here to have a science day with the Elementary students. It was a lot of fun and I hope we can do it again sometime. I made a highlights video if you want to see how it went: https://youtu.be/WkvczwYWOF4 The elementary music concert is tomorrow night. On April 21, the 4th-grade students are putting on their Famous Nebraskans night. It’s always a wonderful evening. SPED - Mrs. Plog Attached
