Several students from HSPS participated in the annual Personal Finance Challenge, where they tackled multiple-choice rapid-fire questions within a 30-minute time frame. Our team, Hawks24, achieved an impressive ranking of number 3 in the Western Nebraska region and number 7 overall. Out of 288 teams in the High School division, including 98 in Lincoln, 91 in Omaha, and 99 in Western Nebraska, our performance stood out.
This achievement has earned our students advancement to the regional competition in Kearney on April 5th.
Members of the team include Jordyn Anderson, Gage Mintken, Hunter McDonald, and Mason Marcy.

The third quarter of the 2023-2024 school year officially ended on Thursday, March 7th. Of course that means it’s time for HSPS to celebrate! On Wednesday, March 13, students PK-12 were released to the auditorium where without talking, they needed to put themselves in birth date order with the other students from all grades. After that, things proceeded with the Honor Roll, Staff Shout-outs, announcement of the Middle Level and High School Super Pass recipients, and finally the presentation of the Student of the Quarter. Congratulations Alexa Tonjes!
