OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Omaha Public Schools’ new superintendent wanted to find out what students wanted to know, so she held a town hall-style meeting.

Superintendent Cheryl Logan answered questions from middle and high school students on Thursday evening at the district’s headquarters. Others texted or emailed their queries. Topics included ACT scores, school security and school lunches.

Logan, who came to Omaha from Philadelphia, asked for the students’ ideas and told them they were the district’s “ultimate consumer.”

When one student asked how the district could improve its ACT scores, Logan said ACT scores begin in kindergarten, which is where the accumulation of knowledge begins. She says the district can’t wait until 10th grade to get students ready for the college entrance exam, which is taken in 11th grade.
