A little Pocket Constitution Scavenger Hunt in Mr. Walter’s 8th Grade U.S. History class! 🇺🇸
The goal was to help students become more comfortable navigating and using the U.S. Constitution as a primary source. Rather than simply memorizing facts, students put their Pocket Constitutions to work, locating specific Articles, Sections, and Amendments and using evidence from the document to answer questions about the structure of our government, its powers, and the rights of the American people.
This was a great opportunity to practice reading, research, and civic literacy while becoming more familiar with one of the most important documents in American history!

Shelton Believer & Achiever Recipients for 2026
To be recognized as a NSAA Believer & Achiever, students must first meet established criteria set by the Nebraska Activities Association. Individuals must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher. The grade point average is calculated through the second semester of the nominee's junior year.
Additionally, a requirement of this award is that the student must participate in an NSAA-sanctioned activity. Other components on the application include Community Involvement through volunteerism in community organizations, youth groups and programs during the applicant's high school career.
Lastly, students are required to complete a Citizenship Essay. This year's essay prompt was the following: "How would you personally define leadership, and in what ways has your participation in NSAA sports and/or activities equipped you to take on leadership roles in the next phases of your life?"
Once all criteria is met, students are given the opportunity to apply for this award, and schools are allowed to nominate up to four individuals per school. This year's recipients for Shelton are Owen Johnson, Olivia Cure, Sonja Warner, & Amaya Morgan.
