Approximately 90 percent of our students will attend a 2-or 4-year college or technical school after graduation and NBC graduates were recently rated as having the highest freshman success rate at the University of Nebraska (Lincoln) campus.

The faculty at NBCPS has a long list of honors for teaching excellence including three Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching and the Great Plains Communications Teacher of the Year winner for 2008. The average years of teaching expereicne for NBCPS faculty exceeds 22 years and nearly 60 percent of the faculty hold Master's Degrees. All NBCPS teachers in core subjects meet the "highly qualified" standard of the No Child Left Behind Act and approximately 94 percent of all secondary courses are taught by specifically endorsed teachers.

NBCPS students have consistently met all state and federal standards of yearly progress since the inception of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2001.
