Culler Middle School

Culler Student Recognition 2025-26

We are Culler Cougars and we dedicate ourselves to being courageous, unstoppable, giving it our all, authentic, ready to learn, safe and successful, and most of all, excellence in learning!


We recognize our students with a PAWSitive point system. Teachers reward students with points as they are found demonstrating any of the characteristics of our pledge. Students can collect these points to redeem for prizes at our weekly Cougar Mart.


A monthly "Culler-bration" allows students that meet monthly goals to celebrate their accomplishments. Students are able to share a treat, get certificates, and receive other tangible rewards.
This year, our goal is to celebrate their successes even more! We have been planning extra activities for our students. These include activities such as family movie night, trunk or treat, and a special night for our English Language Learner students.


We need your help to reward our students and celebrate their greatness! Our recognition items include small prizes that help reward students for their positive behavior, larger prizes that promote community pride at the monthly "Culler-bration" and now fun after school activities. We are requesting $3,500 plus cost reimbursement.


Thank you for supporting our students and helping us to build a positive environment to celebrate their successes!

Elliott Elementary

Stand Up & Write: Fueling Active Learning at Elliott

Help us equip our classrooms with flexible seating that transforms every desk into a whiteboard!

Elliott Elementary is a Title 1 school in the heart of Lincoln, NE. The students, families, and staff at Elliott are passionate about education. Elliott's minority student enrollment is 74% and our families speak 23 different languages. A number of our families have moved to the United States within the last 3 years.

Our school has a goal of 100% of students being on track to graduate and we know learning works best when students are active, not passive. Traditional seating can sometimes lead to wiggles and disengagement. Our school improvement goal is to deepen student learning through writing to learn—getting ideas out on paper (or in this case, on the desk!).

We are raising $5,790 plus the cost of reimbursement for Flexible Whiteboard Seating. These unique desks allows students to stand, move, collaborate, and most importantly, write directly on their desk surface with a dry-erase marker! This immediate, tactile connection between thought and creation boosts engagement, critical thinking, and skill mastery.

You aren't just buying a desk; you are funding an interactive learning station that directly supports our mission to help every student write to learn more effectively.

Randolph Elementary

Randolph Elementary Playground

In collaboration with the LPS Facilities department, we have developed a plan for an additional play structure at Randolph Elementary.  This plan is a multi-phase approach for the addition of more play structures in the future.  Thanks to generous donations from the Randolph community and friends and successful PTA fundraisers, we've made great progress in funding this project.  To help our campaign, we are launching a Fund a Need campaign.   Together, we can create a fun and exciting playground for the school children and the community surrounding us.  Our goal is to raise $5,000 plus fees.  Please help us create lasting memories for children of all ages!
