Read what he had to say about PLCS below?? #WeArePLCS #AEW2024 "Public schools are the backbone of any region, and that is absolutely the case with Papillion-La Vista Community Schools in the community the Omaha Storm Chasers and Union Omaha call home. The schools that make up PLCS do a phenomenal job of giving so many young people in Sarpy County a safe place to receive the quality education they deserve, regardless of background or upbringing. I’m thankful Werner Park is embedded in a community where the public schools provide so many opportunities for students to thrive both in the classroom and outside of it with extracurricular activities. So much good takes place within the walls of public schools across the county, especially in and around the ballpark, so I am excited to see the continued growth of the district."

Public schools make education accessible to all children and provide a diverse and inclusive environment to help every child reach their full potential.”
