Today we have a feature by our Caitlin Lukin on an after school club at Northeast High School!

Today we have a special guest! Mary Kay Roth is the director of Communications. You’ve heard her on Stories from Lincoln Public Schools before doing the superintendent spotlight. She has also done other features in past years called Final Words were she talks with outgoing high school seniors and retiring staff to get their final thoughts. Mary Kay is retiring at the end of September and we want to get HER final words!

Today we feature last night’s Board Preview Live broadcast which focuses on some of the patriotic holidays, including Patriot Day, Constitution Day and Veterans Day we observe within Lincoln Public Schools. Board Member Don Mayhew interviews our social studies curriculum specialist, Jaci Kellison and Schoo Middle School 6th grade teacher (and former police officer) Ryan Treat.

Today we feature this week’s Superintendent Spotlight with Steve Joel! He talks about the role of a superintendent and what his typical day looks like. He also previews the work that the Board of Education has before them over the next couple of months as they process the report from the Superintendent’s Facility Advisory Committee.
