Extractions: BY Jo ANNE YOUNG The woman who will be the new superintendent of Lincoln Public Schools fielded questions Monday afternoon from Lincoln media outlets on the LPS budget, a potential bond issue and student achievement. With a map of Lincoln Public Schools behind her, incoming Superintendent Susan Gourley fields questions during a brief press conference Monday, April 5, 2005. Gourley is in town to search for a home and to meet with current Superintendent Phil Schoo. And she answered one crucial question for kids: What's her policy on snow days? This school year, Lincoln children were out of school for four days because of snow, once in December, twice in January and once in February. The district has five days built into its calendar for snow before kids have to go extra days or extended hours to make up time. Gourley made her first visit to Lincoln after the last big snow in early February to interview for the superintendent job. This week marks her second visit since landing the position. The long list of people she'd like to visit and things she'd like to do could keep her here a month, she said, but she only has a week.

Extractions: Howard Elementary School has received a $5,000 grant from the Laura Bush Foundation for America's Libraries to purchase books for its media center. Howard Elementary School was among 160 recipients of the grant nationwide and was among three recipients in Nebraska. Awardees were selected from more than 1,000 applications, and approximately $777,000 in grants was awarded nationwide. Janel Keyes, integration specialist at Howard Elementary School, oversees its media center. "Grant funds will be used to replace outdated books and to fill gaps in the media center's collection," she said. "Kids need access to current information that's at their reading level." Schools where more than 90 percent of students qualify for free or reduced price meals were eligible to apply for the grant. This is the second time that the Grand Island Public Schools received the grant. Lincoln Elementary School received the grant in 2003, the first year that grant competition was offered.
