Students Visit Cooper Station

 By Jordan Marr, Exeter-Milligan Social Studies Instructor

 

The Exeter-Milligan American government and science classes visited Cooper Nuclear Station near Brownville to learn more about nuclear power production.  The students were able to tour many parts of the facility, including the radioactive controlled areas, and learned the many benefits and safety protocols used in the facility to provide large amounts of electricity to many in the region.

EM FCCLA Attends District Leadership Conference

by Sam Stutzman, E-M FCS Instructor/FCCLA Advisor

On Wednesday, October 4 the Exeter Milligan FCCLA chapter attended their annual District Leadership Conference in Hastings, Nebraska. Twelve Exeter Milligan students attended the conference held at Central Community College. Students were able to see the campus as well as attend sessions tailored to various leadership qualities. Exeter Milligan’s Kierra Papik and Troy Kallhoff assisted in organizing and presenting at the conference. 

Kierra Papik is the chapter’s District Officer who played an important role in organizing and executing a successful conference. She attended district planning meetings prior to and facilitated a group session with other district officers at the conference. Troy Kallhoff, Vice President, created and led a group session connecting this year’s FCCLA theme “Blazing New Paths” with Taylor Swift’s Era’s tour. 

The day was a wonderful success and granted students the opportunity to connect with FCCLA members within our district as well as explore their leadership strengths.

Next Generation Bank Program

By Madalynn Fousek, Exeter-Milligan 5th Grade Teacher

 

The 5th graders went through bank training earlier this year to prepare for the Next Generation Bank Program. They have been putting that training to good use since we started the program three weeks ago. Every Thursday, the 5th graders go to the K-5 classrooms to grab the students who have money to deposit. The 5th graders fill out deposit book slips and help them pick out a prize to enjoy after their deposit.
