This week we surprised Mrs. McKenna as we celebrated National Assistant Principal Week! We are blessed to have her at Dudley! She is in her SWEDE PRINCESS ERA!
We are bursting with pride to announce that our Dudley students have officially earned a staggering 27,610 Swede Way Tickets so far this school year!
Every single one of these tickets represents a student being caught in the act of being responsible, respectful, safe, or kind. From the classrooms to the cafeteria, our students are showing us every day what it truly means to live "The Swede Way."
Joining the 1,000+ Club
A special round of applause goes to the classrooms that have gone above and beyond, each earning over 1,000 tickets! Congratulations to the students in:
Mrs. Koehn’s, Mrs. Miller’s, Mrs. Neels’, Mrs. Schwanz’s, Miss Zach’s, Miss Kennicutt’s, Mrs. Mroczek’s, Mrs. Foster’s, Mrs. David’s, Mrs. Rahjes’ & Mrs. Anderjaska’s.
🔥 The Quarter 4 Challenge
Our school record for a single quarter stands at 10,124 tickets (set back in Quarter 1). We are throwing down the gauntlet to our amazing students and staff: Can we make this final quarter our highest one yet?
Let’s keep that momentum going, Dudley! Keep being leaders, keep being kind, and let's finish this year stronger than ever.
Congratulations to all our hardworking Swedes!

Winning big for Dudley! These two lucky students won $20 in Scholastic books because their mom attended our Title I Parent Meeting during our 2nd semester P/T Conferences. Thanks for the input, and happy reading to our winners!
Today is National Farm Rescuer Day and we are feeling especially grateful for the incredible people who take care of our community when it matters most.
In light of the recent fires across Nebraska, we’ve been reminded just how lucky we are to have such an incredible community of first responders. Whether it’s a playground mishap, a field fire, or an emergency call at any hour, they are always ready to jump in and help without hesitation.
Their selflessness, courage, and commitment do not go unnoticed. They truly embody the spirit of service that makes our community so strong.
We are beyond fortunate to have them. Thank you for all you do today and every day! 🚒❤️

Find Your People – GPS Edition! - PART 2
The SAGA of support continues!!!
The past two weeks at Gothenburg Public Schools have been packed with fun, laughter, and a whole lot of Swede pride! From staff and students twinning in their favorite Swede gear, to celebrating the joy of reading during Read Across America Week, to the creativity and laughs brought by our Teacher Underground Dress-Up Days—the hallways have been full of energy and connection.
One of the best parts of working and learning at GPS is seeing the way our students and staff show up for each other. Whether it’s coordinating outfits with a teammate, sharing a favorite book with a class, or joining in on a themed dress-up day just to bring a few extra smiles to the building, these small moments remind us what makes our school community so special.
The amount of LOVE, pride, and enthusiasm our students and staff show for Swede activities, reading, and supporting one another is truly incredible. It’s these everyday moments—laughter in the hallways, matching outfits, and celebrating learning together—that make our school feel like home.
We are so lucky to be part of a community that believes in lifting each other up, having fun together, and showing what it means to be a Swede.
There truly is no better place to be than Gothenburg!
