Lincoln Northeast High School opened
in 1941 with students from Bethany, Havelock and Jackson high
schools. The idea for
Northeast came about through the vision of five civic clubs in
the Bethany, Havelock and University Place neighborhoods. There
are over 20,000 Northeast High graduates still carrying on the
LNE tradition and former Rockets now live in all 50 states.
The Foundation for Lincoln Public Schools
was established in 1989 to support the Lincoln Public Schools. In those 20
years funds have been raised for programs at Northeast that go
beyond what tax dollars support, programs that enrich students’
learning and enhance the curriculum. The Reeder-Mueller
Scholarship for Northeast seniors was one of the first scholarships
established at the Foundation for LPS. Since then, 20 Rockets
have received college scholarships from donations in honor of
former LNE teachers Miss Elizabeth Reeder and Mr. A.J. (Jack)
Mueller.
