In this episode you will hear a few of the many incredible speeches given at the Top Seniors 2026 Recognition Event.

Members of the Board of Education, Omaha Public Schools Foundation, district leadership, high school principals and program directors attend, along with students’ family members, to honor their accomplishments throughout their career at Omaha Public Schools.
