LPSNRD understands the importance of encouraging students to learn about and explore nature, the environment, and natural resources. To help foster this belief, we offer Nature Clubs in several of our District schools.  These clubs meet after school and provide students time to be actively engaged in hands-on activities while learning about nature. Nature Club activities include making bird feeders, dissecting owl pellets, and embarking on nature scavenger hunts.  ​

The success of the Nature Clubs has led to Family Nature Nights each fall and spring in schools across the district. These free evening events are designed for students and families to experience and connect with nature. All students in the school and their families are welcome to attend and participate in activities like potting plants, making paper, art projects, and chances to interact with live animals. Nature nights are an excellent way for a school to engage student and family learning while increasing knowledge of Nebraska's natural resources. The number of Nature Nights we can organize each year is limited.​
