On-line Calendars for Schedule Changes Open Today

Starting today, July 21st, Students/Parents will be able to view their 2025-26 course schedule in StudentVue/ParentVue, on the Class Schedule tab.

Your schedule will have 8 periods listed: 7 classes and 1 lunch.  Please review your schedule closely and if you need to make an appointment with your counselor for a schedule change, please follow the steps listed below. Schedule changes are made via ZOOM, PHONE or IN-PERSON on various dates and times between July 21st-August 4th.

Note: Students MUST use their LPS Student Email (student ID#@class.lps.org) and Password to make the appointment and receive their confirmation and zoom link. Also, students are no longer able to use their Chromebooks to Zoom, you must Zoom from an alternate device.

STEPS TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

1.  Click on the name of your counselor below to access your counselor’s on-line appointment calendar (counselors are assigned by student’s last name). 

Mrs. Ludwig (A-C)

Ms. Wenz (D-Ha)

Mr. Schnell (He-Le)

Mr. Carothers (Li-Od)

Mrs. Kreikemeier (Og-Sm)

Mrs. Murphy (Sn-Z)

2.  Click on the desired date and time you would like to meet with your counselor. Please enter your contact information. YOU WILL NEED TO INDICATE YOUR MEETING PREFERENCE BY ADDING ONE OF THE FOLLOWING AFTER YOUR LAST NAME.

Examples:

A. (Student’s Last Name)  ZOOM APPT
B. (Student’s Last Name)  IN-PERSON APPT
C. (Student’s Last Name) PHONE APPT (Number to be reached) XXX-XXX-XXXX
      No International calls. Your counselor will contact you with the number you provide above.

(When booking your appointment, if you are outside of Lincoln, NE and using the on-line system make sure your device is set in CENTRAL STANDARD TIME ZONE so it will reflect the correct time when in Lincoln, NE).

3.  CLICK BOOK to reserve the appointment.  If the appointment slot is reserved before you hit BOOK, your computer will freeze or lock up and you WILL NOT receive a confirmation email.  You will need to refresh the calendar and try for another appointment time.

4.  PLEASE be patient with the system and only reserve ONE 15-minute time slot, there are a lot of students at East!  These appointments are for schedule changes ONLY, other planning needs will be addressed after school starts in August.

Before making an appointment, please keep in mind that schedule changes are limited as there is little availability for classes to move, and one move may alter the entire class schedule.  The class availability is in a constant state of change therefore, set your appointment when it is convenient for you to meet and not with the worry that earlier is better, as that is not always the case. Counselors will continue to follow the administrative directive that students MUST follow their assigned lunch period.

Detailed instructions can be found in our July summer mailing letter Schedule Change Procedures.

READINESS DAYS – July 30, 2025

On Readiness Day, students can have their school picture taken by Digital Solutions, check out a locker, pick up their parking pass, pay fees for the upcoming year, complete athletic packets, check out Chromebooks (9th grade), and tour the school to see where their classes are for the 2025-2026 school year. Students will receive their Student ID on the first day of school.

If your student can’t attend their scheduled session, they may attend at any point of the day. If July 30th does not work for your family, your student(s) will have an opportunity to get their school picture taken during the first week of school, and fees may be paid online anytime through ParentVue.

Deadline Update Regarding Ordering Graduation Products

If you still need to order any graduation items, don’t delay. The deadline for ordering your graduation items online and having it shipped to your mailing address is May 14th. Students will still be able to place orders online after May 14th, but you will need to pick up your items from the Lincoln Graduation office. All orders must be placed by NOON (central time) on May 22nd so there is adequate time to process orders.

Fee Waiver orders must be placed by May 9th and will be delivered to the school the week of May 12th (see Mrs. Cruickshank in the counseling center on how to get a waiver or if you have any questions).
