LPS officials say Jeremy Schroeder has been named the athletic director for the new Standing Bear High School, which is scheduled to open in southeast Lincoln in the fall of 2023. Schroeder is currently the athletics and activities director for Freeman Public Schools in Adams, Nebraska as well as the secondary principal there.
“Jeremy Schroeder brings with him a wealth of experiences, leading Freeman as both their principal and athletic director,” says Sue Cassata, the new principal of Standing Bear High School. “He knows and understands the importance of activities and athletics in a student’s experience as they go through high school, and can help us build a strong foundation for Lincoln’s newest high school, Standing Bear,” Cassata says.
“I am excited to work with and learn from Jeremy as we build a program and culture that respects the legacy of Chief Standing Bear, and prepares our students to be leaders in the classroom and on the playing fields.”
Schroeder earned his bachelor’s degree from Peru State and his master’s degree in education administration from Concordia University. He will begin his new job on July 1.
