We had a great meeting in Kearney this past week. Sam Stecher and Mark Johnson regaled club members by sharing some of their professional experiences and what it takes to be successful with students. Their book, "It Happens in the Hallways: Impacting School Climate Beyond the Classroom"is an insightful, fantastic read filled with honesty, philosophy and wit. Thank you Sam and Mark!!
Nebraska Schoolmasters also awarded two $1,000 scholarships. Congratulations Nicole Hardwick, Superintendent of Boone Central Public Schools and Kate Damgaard of Lincoln Public Schools!
