Appreciation for "Nebraska Loves Public Schools"

I just want to say "thank you" to Sally, Brittany, and the rest of the "Nebraska Loves Public Schools" organization. This group has really gone above and beyond in helping to promote the importance of a strong public education. Over the past 12-months, I've seen a lot more support and appreciation for public school systems. I've seen way more school districts begin to better promote what they're doing and who they're doing it for.

Nebraska Loves Public Schools is making a difference. They've begun to rally and unite public educators and supporters from east to west, big to small, urban to rural. There is SO MUCH to be proud of and Sally and her crew are finding unique and energetic ways to "tell our story."

A strong public education is one of the primary backbones of our nation. We're proud to do what we do and to serve ALL of our young people. With that being said, public education needs to get better. We need to become more innovative. We need to continue our important work on closing the achievement gap. We need to find more creative ways to engage parents and patrons. We're always a "work in progress" like all successful organizations should be.

Please join me in thanking "Nebraska Loves Public Schools." They're doing important work. They're making a difference. They're helping to unite and inform thousands of Nebraskans.
