Many Nebraska communities are providing hands-on, engaging summer learning activities for thousands of high-need youth through collaborative efforts bringing together the talents of schools and community-based organizations.  These include communities that are part of Beyond School Bells’ ten city coalition of Expanded Learning Programs, including Sidney, Nebraska.  Youth in Sidney's afterschool program participated in a summer Entrepreneurship program that included pitching their ideas to local banks, developing their own t-shirts and promoting their projects on local radio.
