$4 “NSAA…the other half of education.” NSAA STATE TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS MAY 22-23, 2015 • OMAHA 2014-2015 NSAA OFFICIAL CHAMPIONSHIP PROGRAM Fellow Nebraskans: As the 40th Governor of Nebraska, I look forward to working with leaders across our state to expand educational opportunities for the next generation of citizens. A student’s involvement outside the classroom can build the character and discipline they need to succeed in the classroom. I commend the NSAA for the work they do to provide extracurricular activities to Nebraska students which instill important values like hard work, creativity, and responsibility. The activities of the coming days will help lay a foundation for skills that will serve you for a lifetime. Enjoy these activities as you challenge one another to new heights of excellence, and best of luck in your endeavors! -Pete Ricketts Governor of Nebraska Music, Play-Production, Speech, Journalism, and Athletics! These activities offer Nebraska students the opportunity to learn the value of teamwork, responsibility, dealing with adversity, competition, diversity, and community. Extracurricular participation complements the lessons learned in the classroom and reinforces the skills our students need in a real-world context. How exciting that over 120,000 students within 25 activities, in over 304 member high schools across Nebraska participate in NSAA programs. By participating, our students have already won! On behalf of the NSAA Board of Directors and the NSAA Staff, we send our collective thanks for your support of the Association’s mission and interscholastic events. Please accept our best wishes as you cheer and support your school!
