PowerSchool Online Registration Reminder

For the 2019-2020 school year, Elkhorn Public Schools (EPS) will again utilize an online registration system that will allow parents of K-12 students to log in and update information and complete all Back-to-School documents.  As a reminder, to use this feature, parents/guardians will need to have a parent access account in PowerSchool.

If you do not already have a parent access account set up, please follow this link for directions on how to create an account: https://bit.ly/2KqcSLh.   However, you will not be able to complete the online registration process until July.  An email will be sent out when online registration becomes available.

If you have an account created for your 4th-12th grade student(s) but need to add younger students, please follow this link for directions on adding additional children: https://bit.ly/2wDNJuT.

If you have any questions or concerns or need assistance setting up your account, please contact your building secretary.

EPS Launching TeamMates Mentoring Program

EPS Launching TeamMates Mentoring Program

As Elkhorn Public Schools continues to experience significant growth throughout the District, and our student population progressively diversifies, the need for extra student support increases. As a result of this growth, EPS recently made the decision to transition our current, district-run Partners in Education Mentoring Program into a chapter with the TeamMates Mentoring Program.

This school-based mentoring program, founded by Dr. Tom and Nancy Osborne, is an additional tool utilized by EPS to provide more structured support and encouragement for students, given the wide variety of backgrounds and interests that can be found in EPS students,  while bringing more mentors into our program and allowing us to retain the majority of our current mentoring relationships already in place.

TeamMates mentors are asked to meet with their student mentee once per week during regular school hours, within the school building.  If you’re interested in making a difference in the life of an EPS student, please visit https://teammates.org/become-a-mentor/apply/ and choose “Elkhorn, NE” as your desired chapter.

If you have questions regarding the TeamMates of Elkhorn mentoring chapter, contact Kara Perchal at kperchal@epsne.org or (402) 289-2579.
