Planning Freshman First Day is a ton of work—drafting schedules, creating activities, organizing materials, supporting teachers. But you know? Today was a great day. It makes the work worth it. #WeAreNorthwest @OPS_Northwest

Athletics and Activities Fair to wrap up @OPS_Northwest Freshman Jumpstart. Best advice for HS—get involved! #HuskiesRising

Q&A panel with staff and students on the last day of Freshman Jumpstart! #WeAreNorthwest

Back at @UNOmaha with our last group of @OPS_Northwest freshmen this morning! The lilacs on campus are blooming, and they smell amazing.🌸

Two of our @OPS_Northwest freshmen houses are at @UNOmaha today. They are competing in a campus scavenger hunt to see who can find all the important places! #WeAreNorthwest #NWFreshmanAcademy #GoMavs

Today in high school biology 😆

So excited to utilize SchooLinks next school year! Excellent training this morning with @JMLuethge and the other freshman leads. #OPSProud

Incoming @OPS_Northwest freshmen should be getting a letter from us this week! We can’t wait to meet you all! #WeAreNorthwest #Classof2028

I can accept defeat. But man, I can’t stand it when bad reffing gets in the way of our student athletes’ opportunities.

If I am known for anything at the end of this life, I hope it’s that I was kind—a trait people never fail to undervalue. #DumbledoreWisdom

I might be on break this week, but we had to carve out a little time for cheer. New choreo coming to a court near you! #WeAreNorthwest

It has been a FULL day of learning at #NCAC2023. From freshmen academy to standards-based grading to literacy—there’s so much to know!

Let’s go, #NCAC2023! Mr. Simon and I are launching right into learning about academies and capstones today. @OPS_Northwest @coachzachsimon

We had our first outreach event today at @OPS_NathanHale, one of feeder middle schools. The pep rally was so much fun! 🥳 #WeAreNorthwest @OPS_Northwest

Graphing 📈 and fighting zombies 🧟‍♂️? Sounds like the perfect math lesson before Halloween in Ms. Musgrave’s algebra class! @OPS_Northwest #FreshmenAcademy

Reflecting on this week, the highlight was our AMAZING first @OPS_Northwest Freshmen Academy Advisory Board meeting. It was great collaborating with stakeholders and brainstorming how to support our 9th graders!❤️ #WeAreNorthwest

I did my first announced observation and evaluation today. So grateful for the teachers trusting me in this process!

We made it to Chicago in time to see the Husker volleyball team crush Northwestern. 💯 Now we’re ready for NFSI tomorrow!

Reminder: conferences are today and tomorrow! Sign-up links were sent by each teacher to families. @OPS_Northwest

🩷The Husky football team would love your support at their last football game this Friday! 🩷 @OPS_Northwest
