Parents must first create an account and register their child(ren).

Students can also join on-demand tutoring to be connected with the next available Tutor.

The Parent Guide provides steps for parents to register their child(ren), schedule a session, request on-demand tutoring, and more.https://www.nscs.edu/_resources/e30d:s88r3a-2a3/files/77108154zc714d33b/_fn/Nebraska%20SMART%20Parent%20Guide.pdf

When connected to a Tutor, students (or parents on their behalf) can share files with their Tutor. It is recommended that students (or parents on their behalf) have saved their homework to their computer prior to connecting to a Tutor.

The Nebraska SMART tutoring platform can be accessed via a laptop, desktop, or Chromebook.

Dr. Gossman was lucky enough to present to Peru State College's current student teachers last week. They are well on their way to being our future educators!

Collegiate members can join Sebastian Boelhower and Kelsey Brundage for their session "Never Say Never: What They Don’t Tell You About Accepting Your First Job" at the Collegiate Symposium during the 2023 Conference/In-Service Clinic!

This session is a guide for collegiate music education students of all focus areas on how to evaluate and accept their first job offers. It expands on the full range of our extensive K-12 endorsement and analyzes how each facet of that degree can manifest itself in job opportunities. This presentation challenges the idea of a "dream job" and encourages those listening to consider other opportunities that they may not have thought of before. This presentation also evaluates how to effectively discern what position is right for each individual person. Music teachers are in high demand which allows us to be slightly more selective in our acceptance choices. However, sometimes our “dream job” is not actually the job of our dreams. This presentation explains how to tell the difference and how to make a choice that’s right for you.

The Catholic diocese of Lincoln held their annual Diocesan Institute which is essentially a professional development day for Catholic School Teachers. Heard a keynote from our bishops and attended some sessions. It was so cool to have a little Peru State reunion! Katie Stoller was there too but she wasn’t around for this picture.

Congratulations Bailey Bitz! Bailey will be starting at MILLARD NORTH MIDDLE SCHOOL in January!!
