Rooted in Nebraska
In Nebraska, our public schools are Rooted in Academics and Grown for Success. This message is a grassroots movement, born out of collaboration, to represent what Nebraskans embody–students, parents, and educators working together to cultivate united relationships to help the youth of our state flourish. From the Metro cities to the Panhandle and all of the incredible places in between, Nebraska Public Schools provide a safe, steady, and encouraging learning environment with continuing parent and community support. Together, we inspire student success and foster academic growth.
Nebraska’s pride in its public education system is rooted in more than 150 years of academic excellence and student success. School buildings are the cornerstones of communities and the central hubs where students accomplish the extraordinary. Here you will find resources and a place to share the successes of your students and programs.
Nebraska’s public schools are the beating heart of our state. Rooted in Academics. Grown for Success.
