Student Spotlight: Jack Kent Cooke Young Scholars Program Finalists

We want to congratulate two of our ETS students, Obed M. and Nick B., from Park Middle School for being semifinalists for the Jack Kent Cooke Young Scholars Program! It is a huge honor for students to be considered for this elite national program, and little to no students from Nebraska have ever been accepted.

If you are a 7th grade student, you can apply this spring: https://www.jkcf.org/our-scholarships/young-scholars-program/

 

Future Events

ETS will be offering a high school visit to Bryan College of Health Sciences, Volunteering at the Foodbank of Lincoln, and an Engineering/Robotics Field Trip. More details coming soon!
