My name is Megan Akinmoladun and I am the School Social Worker for Lewis and Clark Middle School. I assist students and their families with various needs. Life circumstances have changed for many families due to the pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus. Please contact me if you feel I might be of assistance in locating community resources to help with any needs or concerns. It is important to all staff at Lewis and Clark that your child has what they need to be the best student they can be!
To ensure student and staff safety, please be advised that staff have limited access to messages outside of the school day. If you need immediate assistance, please contact the Safe Schools Hotline at 531.299.SAFE(7233) or safe2helpNE.org. If this is an emergency, go to your nearest emergency room or call 911.
