’22-23 Kindergarten Registration

The Parent/StudentVUE portal is a component of the LPS Student Information System that allows parents/guardians to:
Traditionally, one of the rituals families participate in as they prepare for the new school year is to purchase school supplies. In accordance with the Nebraska Constitution and state and federal law, Lincoln Public Schools provides a free, public education to all students. This generally means the district provides the supplies needed for instruction at no cost to students. This includes textbooks, pencils, erasers, crayons, glue, scissors, paper, notebooks, tissues, etc. For this reason, please do not send school supplies for your child’s individual use at school.
You are NOT required to purchase any of these items, but you may wish to purchase and donate some items to your child’s classroom. All items purchased will be graciously accepted as a donation to the school and will be shared by all students within the classroom.

Congratulations to the fifth graders who are moving on to middle school today. We are proud of the young people you are becoming and we look forward to watching you as you go forth to make your mark on the world. We know that you will make a difference! Thank you to the Cavett parents for sharing pictures so that Mr. Aken could create this special recognition video. Always remember to work hard, dream big and never give up! Fly high cardinals!

Help Desk tickets and phone calls (402-436-1735) are the best avenues of technical support for students and families at this time.
Click HERE for a resource for elementary families who want to submit a help ticket on their Chromebook, but are unfamiliar with the process. If the student has an older sibling in 6th-12th grade, it should look very familiar.
Lincoln Public Schools families,
There will be a number of updates we will be sharing with you as we navigate the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Please continue to check your email or our website (lps.org) for this important information. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this.
You will be receiving instructions Monday morning from your school principal providing links to instructional materials for all students and about student Chromebook pick up for students grades 2-5 on Tuesday, March 17, 2020. We strongly encourage picking up the Chromebook at the times outlined by your school as it will be used for learning if the school closure continues.
You will be receiving instructions next week from your school on how your students can access classroom instructional materials. Please have your child check their Google Classrooms and student email. Your school will inform you how to pick up your child’s Chromebook if your child has left it at school over spring break.
Our Nutrition Services will provide a sack lunch and breakfast for any LPS student at any of the five locations beginning Monday, March 16. The sites are Belmont, Arnold and Hartley elementary schools; Park Middle School and Northeast High School. The student needs to be present to pick up the meal. One meal per student will be available between the hours of 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. while supplies last.
Schools with LPS BackPack Program:
For those families currently receiving BackPacks from the Food Bank of Lincoln, they intend to continue distribution of BackPacks on the regularly scheduled Friday afternoons. They will begin BackPack distributions according to each school’s regularly scheduled dismissal time and continue for 30 minutes.
School Food Markets:
At this time, Food Markets will temporarily take place outside the school building during the school’s regularly scheduled day and time. To simplify the distribution and increase health and safety, most of the food will come pre-bagged, except produce, bread and meat, which will be bagged onsite. Look for us to be set up in areas close to the front door of your school.
LPS Emergency Pantry:
Following our standard LPS closure policy, the LPS Emergency Pantry will NOT be open while LPS is closed. For more information about accessing the Lincoln Food Bank distribution locations visit their website: https://www.lincolnfoodbank.org/get-food/food-finder/
Watching news reports, spending time on social media, and listening to people discuss their fears about COVID-19 can cause people to feel anxious. This is a particular concern for young people, who may not fully understand or have context for the information they are receiving.
It is important to remember that children look to trusted adults for how to respond in stressful situations. Adults who remain calm, share factual information, and provide answers that are developmentally appropriate can help young people remain calm also.
We will be updating families through email and on our website (lps.org) all week. On Friday, March 20 we will make another announcement about school for the following week.
Thank you for your continued cooperation.
