Raider Family,
The senior class at Lawrence Nelson continues to ask the community to join us on Monday, November 11th at 10:00 for the annual Veteran's Day celebration. This is open to the community, and you do not have to be a vet to attend. Please encourage other family and friends to show up as well. If you are a veteran, make sure you RSVP to the school by calling 402-225-3371. Ask for Carlie and let her know you are planning on attending.
Monday, October 28, Shannon McCord came and talked to the Intro to Business Class. Shannon is the owner of Ideal Market in Superior. Some of the things he talked about was investment, cutting unnecessary expenses, and a community first mindset. He talked about investments–if you could make your money back in the next 5 years, it was a good investment. For example, in Ideal Market they just bought new digital shelf tags. This will save them labor and money because they will not have to go out every day and put out new shelf tags. All they have to do now is click a button. A while back, he bought new freezers to cut unnecessary power expenses. One of his main goals with his business is to put the community first. One example is carrying out bags for his customers.

On October 24th, all students gathered for an assembly to recognize those who improved their MAP test scores. Students were acknowledged for improvements of 1-3%, 4% or higher, and for achieving the highest RIT scores in each content area by grade. Congratulations to Maddy Laughlin, who scored the highest in all content areas for the freshman class—Math, Reading, Language Arts, and Science. She tied with Bayleigh Bohlen in Science.
