 Barbara Wolf Shousha, Director
My personal experience of completing independent study courses when I was in high school is what makes me such an advocate for our school. I know that I developed a strong focus and sense of responsibility because I was able to work at my own pace. In my career in the classroom and in corporate education, I have felt privileged to support student success.I am glad every day to bring my twin passions for business and education to the University of Nebraska High School.

Carolyn Hovermale, Teacher
I love working for the University of Nebraska High School—every day is different! When the phone rings or I open an email, I don't know who will be there. It might be a student or parent from here in Lincoln or from half way around the world. If you ever need a question answered or help with a course, please contact me.
