Family fights for continued awareness of dyslexia, grateful for eight years of Nebraska legislation • Nebraska Examiner
LINCOLN — Norah Schmidt loves reading, particularly dystopia and romance novels, but the high school senior recalls when that wasn’t always the case because of a learning disability: dyslexia.
Norah, 17, remembers being pulled out of class for timed readings where staff would hold a stopwatch and track how quickly she could read and if she was close to her peers.
“The first six years of school, K through 5, were hard,” Norah told the Nebraska Examiner this summer. “I didn’t know what I was doing, reading in fifth grade at a third grade level, reading my first book in fifth grade. It’s improved since but still hard.”
Close to graduation and looking ahead to college, Norah said she reads whenever she gets the chance now, after years of an uphill climb of interventions in part aided by legislation and advocacy from Norah’s parents in Lincoln Public Schools.
Legislation back to 2017
State lawmakers have passed multiple bills since 2017 to improve services for students with dyslexia and require intensive reading interventions in each of Nebraska’s 244 school districts.
“I do hope that with all this going through, students who are coming into schools don’t have to go through things I did,” Norah said of the legislation.
State Sen. Lou Ann Linehan of Elkhorn has been heavily involved in legislative efforts regarding dyslexia, including her support this year for Fremont State Sen. Lynne Walz’s Legislative Bill 1284. That package contained two reading proposals from Linehan, which she said was her last “rah rah” before being term-limited out of the Legislature:
- LB 1253, to award up to $500,000 in grants to Nebraska companies researching artificial-intelligence-based writing assistance models for students with dyslexia.
- LB 1254, to set aside $2 million over three years for reading improvement mentorship programs and to employ regional coaches to train teachers in K-3 how to teach reading.
Linehan, who has dyslexia, introduced LB 651 in 2017 during her first year as a state senator to provide accelerated reading interventions for students in grades K-3.
Known as the Nebraska Reading Improvement Act, any student who exhibited a reading deficiency would have received an individual reading improvement plan. Students would have needed to show sufficient reading skills to move on to fourth grade or be held back for a year.
Linehan said that extra support is critical, partially to prevent behavioral issues for students who will “hate school because they don’t want to be embarrassed.”
“They don’t want to have to stand up and be asked to read a book, and they can’t, so they throw the book because ‘I’d rather be in trouble than be embarrassed and have my friends make fun of me,’” Linehan said.
School tour informed legislation
At LB 651’s hearing, superintendents, teachers and school members from various school districts expressed concern, particularly with retaining students in the third grade.
Then-State Sen. Patty Pansing Brooks of Lincoln, who sat on the Education Committee along with Linehan, also opposed the measure, which later stalled during floor debate for the year.
But a separate bill, LB 645 from Pansing Brooks, did pass in 2017 to define dyslexia in state law. Linehan supported the change.
Pansing Brooks brought the bill on behalf of her brother and cousin, who have dyslexia, and her mother, a former Lincoln Board of Education member who pushed for dyslexia-related services.
Linehan and Pansing Brooks have opposing political ideologies, but they sought to find a path forward in the fall of 2017 by touring more than a dozen schools together statewide to gather additional perspectives from educators and students, which informed new legislation to improve literacy.
“The education community could blow me off because I was not a supporter of the teachers union. I was a very conservative member. They could have run me over,” Linehan said. “They could not run over Patty — her willingness, my determination, and just keep going back.”
Pansing Brooks returned in 2018 with LB 1052, to update a dyslexia-focused guide for educators and require teacher training. And Linehan amended a revised version of her previous bill into LB 1081, which didn’t include holding students back. Both passed overwhelmingly.
Linehan’s proposal established three reading assessments for all students in grades K-3 each academic year, as well as supplemental interventions for those young students who have a reading deficiency.
“I felt like we could really work stronger together, and she’s a force, there’s no question,” Pansing Brooks said this summer.
In 2023, Linehan proposed LB 298, which also passed. It requires schools to track how many students have been tested for a specific learning disability and how many have a reading issue.
Districts must report that information annually by July 1 to the Nebraska Department of Education, which must compile the information and send a public report to the Legislature each year no later than Sept. 1.
I do hope that with all this going through, students who are coming into schools don’t have to go through things I did.
– Norah Schmidt of Lincoln, a high school senior who has dyslexia
‘I felt like Alice in Wonderland’
Heather Schmidt, Norah’s mother, recalled some of her own frustrations prior to that legislation, when Norah was in elementary school. School staff would show Norah’s parents charts “of why everything’s fine.” When Heather told them that everything wasn’t fine and that Norah was struggling, she said she was told to look at the chart in a different way.
“When we first started down this path, I honestly, in the meetings, felt like Alice in Wonderland just trying to figure out how to get home, and everybody was telling me about eight, nine other things that didn’t make sense,” Heather Schmidt recalled.
For some of Norah’s classes, she would have a sheet to track how many books she read each week. Though she spent hours reading, she couldn’t reach the goal, yet her mom would still sign the assignment, knowing the effort that Norah had put in.
Norah said she is still learning to cope with dyslexia and how to study, but an AI-focused tool created by local university students, Dyslexico, is helping to cut her study time in half.
“Instead of getting frustrated and shutting her Chromebook and pushing it away, she just kept going and writing, kept studying,” Heather Schmidt said. “You’d see her just kind of wilt as if she was defeated [before].”
Support with artificial intelligence
Dyslexico started in the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Raikes School. Key team members Bridget Peterkin and Tristan Curd, who graduated in May, testified at a legislative hearing in February in support of Linehan’s grant program in LB 1253.
The online program is powered through AI but finds what its creators have described as a middle ground compared to other grammar check software.
Peterkin said when Dyslexico began, it all felt very theoretical, but support and excitement from Linehan and others left the team “blown away.”
Curd said this summer that Dyslexico was looking to start new pilot programs with schools. He said getting a grant could help the team improve its services for the community.
“It’s super exciting because at its core, it will help us keep Dyslexico going,” Curd said.
Linehan said the student team amazed her because they understood dyslexia and that people who have it are capable and intelligent, but just struggle to read or write.
The grant applications are due to the Nebraska Department of Education by Sept. 6.
‘We need to be proactive’
Elizabeth Tegtmeier, president of the State Board of Education, which oversees the Education Department, said that all students need to be supported. She said the State Board should expect struggling students to receive interventions but doesn’t need to wait for legislation.
“We’re in harmony as far as student literacy, and I just think that this particular facet of literacy needs to rise to the surface,” Tegtmeier said of the State Board.
Tegtmeier said she also has a child who struggles to read and found herself, like Heather Schmidt, supplementing the assistance her school provided and seeking additional resources.
“We need to be proactive, not wait until students have failed,” Tegtmeier said. “That affects their self-esteem. It affects their ability to work in the classroom if we wait for them to fail before we offer them assistance.”
‘Swimming upstream’
Heather and Norah Schmidt haven’t always been successful in finding advocates within Lincoln Public Schools, they said, but they recently found support in Sara Jones, LPS’ student services supervisor, and Adriana Martinez, Lincoln Southeast High School’s English Department chair, who was one of Norah’s teachers last year.
Norah said Martinez gave her as much time as she needed on assignments and would break lessons down in a way she could understand, tailored to her learning style.
Martinez said that she regularly tailors support to her students’ needs and that the “bare minimum” for teachers is to read and understand a student’s learning accommodations as part of their Section 504 plan or individualized education plan.
“Once I have a good understanding of my kids, we have pretty open conversations with what they need to feel successful,” Martinez said.
Jones said that everyone at LPS wants students to succeed and that accommodations are available to students, but she acknowledged it’s a “tough avenue to fight, like swimming upstream,” at times.
“When you find that one little gem that might work, it’s such a good feeling,” Jones said.
Throughout her 12 years in special education, Jones said, it’s almost hard to describe how students change once the right tool is put in front of them. She said she sometimes runs into former students in the community and is able to see how the interventions have paid off.
“It’s just so heartwarming,” Jones said. “Even if it’s just one kid.”
Martinez said teachers should “walk with humility” and understand that they don’t know everything and need to be lifelong learners.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers have seen that policies don’t always catch students’ needs, Martinez explained. She said many teachers are adapting and being more accessible.
“I think the more that students see teachers as collaborators for their learning,” Martinez said, “the better that we can make their education.”
‘We need to keep pushing harder’
Norah said more education for teachers on dyslexia will be helpful, as some don’t know what it is. She hopes future students don’t have to wait for help as long as her family did.
“I’m glad it’s happening now rather than 10 years down the line,” Norah said.
Her mother worries that momentum surrounding dyslexia needs could slow down with Linehan leaving the Legislature after this year.
“I hope we’re not going to be left without moving forward,” Heather Schmidt said. “I feel like they’ve made a lot of inroads, just even with the awareness level, but we need to keep pushing harder.”
Linehan said that with the accountability measures in place and a bigger focus on phonics and reading comprehension, she sees the work continuing.
“I may no longer be in the Legislature, but I will still pay attention. It is too important,” Linehan said. “We can’t let bright, capable people not get an education because they struggle to read at an early age.”
A legislative history on dyslexia and reading
At least five new laws have taken effect related to dyslexia since 2017, led by former State Sen. Patty Pansing Brooks of Lincoln and State Sen. Lou Ann Linehan of Elkhorn.
- 2018: LB 1081 (Education Committee, with LB 651 from Linehan) — Established the Nebraska Reading Improvement Act, which encouraged school boards to develop reading instruction and intervention policies and required approved reading assessments to be given to students three times each school year plus supplemental interventions for students who have a reading deficiency. Passed 46-1.
- 2023: LB 298 (Linehan) — Required school districts to report how many students have been tested for a specific learning disability (including characteristics of dyslexia), are identified as having a reading issue and who have shown improvement. Passed 44-0.
- 2024: LB 1284 (State Sen. Lynne Walz of Fremont, with LB 1253 and LB 1254 from Linehan) — Established the $500,000 Dyslexia Research Grant Program for Nebraska companies researching the use of artificial-intelligence-based writing assistance for students with dyslexia. The Nebraska Department of Education is also required to develop and implement a professional learning system for evidence-based reading instruction for teachers who teach children up to third grade how to read. Passed 42-0.
Bergen Reilly’s stellar sophomore season continues to add more accolades.
The Nebraska volleyball setter claimed the Big Ten Conference’s Setter of the Week honor on Monday as the conference awarded weekly honors. It is the ninth time this season a Husker has been honored, and the fourth time for Reilly in 2024.
The sophomore led No. 2 Nebraska to wins over No. 16 Minnesota and Indiana with over ten assists per set and nearly four digs per set in the wins last week. In the four-set over the Golden Gophers Thursday, Reilly had 40 assists and a career-high 20 digs with six kills. She became the first Husker setter to record at least 40 assists, 20 digs, and five kills in a match in the rally scoring era.
Reilly then capped the weekend in a dominant Saturday sweep of Indiana, adding 35 assists with seven digs. She aided the Nebraska offense to a .324 hitting percentage, and totaled 75 assists, 27 digs, eight kills, seven blocks, and one ace over the two matches.
Reilly joins her own company for the fourth time this season as the Huskers’ Setter of the Week honoree, claiming the award for the first time in November. She last won the award on Oct. 14, and had previously claimed the honor on Sept. 2 and Sept. 16.
Reilly’s fourth award keeps her ahead of Penn State freshman setter Izzy Starck, who has claimed the conference’s honor three times this season. Nebraska has had four players claim conference honors, as Reilly, middle blockers Andi Jackson and Rebekah Allick, and libero Lexi Rodriguez have all earned a weekly award this year.
Allick has won two defensive players of the week honors, while Rodriguez has earned two. Jackson, a fellow sophomore, claimed defensive player of the week honors on Oct. 28. Reilly’s Nov. 18 honor marks the eighth Big Ten Setter of the Week honor of her career, as the South Dakota native won four weekly honors in 2023.
Nebraska (26-1, 16-0 B1G) continues to lead the Big Ten regular season race with key wins over the top teams in the conference, including No. 7 Wisconsin, No. 8 Purdue, No. 13 Oregon, No. 16 Minnesota, No. 21 USC, and RV Washington. The No. 2 Huskers head to Iowa on Wednesday for a match in Iowa City, then return to Lincoln Saturday night for a home rematch against the Badgers.

Dear Lord, the battles we go through life,
We ask for a chance that’s fair.
A chance to equal our stride,
A chance to do or dare.
Nebraska players have been saying these words for decades before leaving the locker room. It is practically a mission statement for the program.
But with five seconds to go on Saturday, Nebraska did not get a chance that was fair. The officials either did not see – or refused to call – an egregious hold on Jahmal Banks in the end zone.
I despise the notion – in any sport – that the refs should swallow their whistles to avoid impacting the outcome of a game. If it is a penalty in the first 59 minutes, it absolutely should be a penalty in the final minute. Seeing something as blatantly obvious as that hold and not throwing a flag IS deciding the outcome of the game.
And kindly get out of here with the “good teams should never be in a situation where the refs can take the game away from you” talk. At best, you’re saying we should be okay with teams being penalized for not meeting some mysterious standard of “good.”
Also – and hopefully this isn’t news to you – Nebraska has not been a “good team” for a while. Mediocre to bad teams (such as Nebraska in the last decade) have a hard enough time getting out of their own way without having to worry about the officials screwing them over.
Just how much of a cushion would Nebraska have needed to overcome the holding in the end zone, the other defensive holding that would have given NU first and goal, or a possible illegal touching penalty before USC’s first touchdown?
Expecting a mediocre team to score an extra 17 points to overcome botched calls from the officials is like expecting to find a bespoke tuxedo at Walmart.
It doesn’t take a psychic to predict how things likely would have ended if the Huskers were correctly awarded an untimed down from inside the 10-yard line (half the distance from the previous line of scrimmage). Matt Rhule now has a worse record in one-score games at NU (2-9, .182) than Scott Frost (5-22, .185). It was unlikely that Nebraska was going to come back and win – or even tie – this game.
But Nebraska’s impotence in clutch moments doesn’t excuse a horrible no-call. Nebraska – just like any other team – deserves the chance to succeed or fail on their own merit.
As that Husker prayer says:
If we should win, let it be by the code,
Faith and honor held high.
If we should lose, we’ll stand by the road,
And cheer as the winners go by.
Day by day, this team is not getting better and better. The Nebraska team that beat Colorado by 18 points ten weeks ago would absolutely destroy the team that showed up in Los Angeles.
The early September team had a healthy quarterback playing with an intoxicating mix of confidence and pizzazz. The defense flew around looking for quarterbacks to sack. They rallied to the ball and refused to give up rushing yards to anyone.
Since then, there has been a lot of regression. The execution isn’t as sharp. Nobody seems especially confident. Special teams is the only unit that is even marginally better than where they were in September – and that’s only because the bar was set very low.
That’s not very encouraging for a team that still needs to find one more win to get to a bowl game. But other than kicker John Hohl, who would you say is playing better than they were in September?
When Rhule says “players need to make plays,” he’s right. If you’ve listened to any of Matt Rhule’s press conferences in the last month or so, you’ve likely heard him say something about needing the players to make plays. While some fans may not like that message, he’s undisputably right.
I can think of two different drives where a Nebraska player had a realistic chance to make an interception. Both of those drives ended in USC touchdowns.
Offensively, the first drive of the fourth quarter was a case study in what Rhule has been talking about. The drive opened with Heinrich Haarberg keeping the ball for a 13-yard gain. Haarberg was visibly upset because he was one broken tackle away from a big gain or touchdown.
After two runs gained a total of five yards, Raiola hit Emmett Johnson on a screen pass. If EJ makes one guy miss, he easily picks up the first down and a big chunk of yards. Instead, he’s tackled after a two-yard gain, setting up the bizarre timeout / delay of game sequence we’ll address below.
I’ll freely acknowledge that Nebraska’s coaching and play calling – in every phase – has often left much to be desired.
But I’ll guarantee that Raiola has been coached to find a wide-open Jahmal Banks – or to pick up the first down before sliding. And the defensive backs have been coached to catch (or bat down) passes that are seemingly thrown to them.
Tony White got out-coached. Lincoln Riley didn’t seem intimidated by White and Nebraska’s 3-3-5 defense. Riley started his backup quarterback (Jayden Maiava) and put up 441 yards of total offense.
Nebraska had some chances to rattle Maiava after the early pick six, but two other potential interceptions ended up in his receivers’ hands. When Nebraska brought pressure, they couldn’t get him on the ground. Once Riley got his quarterback comfortable and confident, he was able to achieve balance with a running game that often used Nebraska’s aggression against itself.
That said, I’m not going to lose a ton of sleep over it. Despite USC’s struggles this season, the Trojans have been a much better team at home than on the road. Riley is still one of the top offensive minds in the game with a proven ability to develop quarterbacks. Tony White is not the first good defensive coordinator to look mortal facing Riley, and he won’t be the last.
If you didn’t know Nebraska had a new play caller, would you have noticed any changes? Game one of the Dana Holgorsen era looked a lot like final games of the Marcus Satterfield era: Lots of screens and short passes, a short-lived attempt to establish a running game, and just a handful of points.
As I wrote after the Holgorsen change was announced, I wasn’t expecting big changes in the last three games. It is unrealistic to implement a new offense in November.
But I did think we might see more passes beyond the line of scrimmage. A willingness to stick with something that is working. And a focus on getting the ball in the hands of potential playmakers like Haarberg and Jacory Barney Jr.
One game is obviously too soon to make any sweeping judgments, so I’ll say this: If Nebraska is going to become bowl eligible, the offense will need to score more than 13 points.
What the hell was that timeout / delay of game / punt sequence? After Emmitt Johnson was tackled on a screen pass (see above), the Huskers had 4th & 3 from their 40, trailing by 1. It seemed too early (and too far) to go for it, but Nebraska called a timeout to presumably talk it over.
After the timeout, the offense lined up, and Raiola just sort of walked around until the play clock expired. There was no attempt to hard count. Heck, Raiola never even went under center. After the delay of game backed them up five yards, NU punted. USC marched down the field and scored. Even by Nebraska standards, it was bizarre.
I’m willing to buy Rhule’s postgame explanation (they wanted to fake the punt, but didn’t have the right look so they called the timeout and decided to go for it. But they didn’t get the look they wanted there either, so they took the delay).
But at the same time, I’m frustrated by a) wasting a timeout in a game that seemed destined to come down to the last drive, b) not having a Plan B if the look wasn’t right for them to go for it (isn’t that what helmet communications are for?), and c) generally looking inept.
In the big picture, the sequence didn’t really matter, but it didn’t instill a lot of confidence in NU’s clock management.
Should you hold out hope for a bowl game? I won’t sugar coat it: the odds for getting that elusive sixth win do not look great. In their last 20 games against Wisconsin and Iowa, the Huskers have a total of two wins – both against the Hawkeyes. The last time Nebraska beat Wisconsin, Mitt Romney was campaigning to become the 45th President.
The Badgers (also 5-5) are arguably Nebraska’s best remaining chance for a victory. They’ve been up and down, battled injuries, and just fired their offensive coordinator. They’ve also played a hard schedule with losses against the (then) #1, #3, #4, and #13 teams, nearly upsetting Oregon on Saturday.
Iowa is already bowl eligible and will likely be 7-4 when Nebraska visits for a Black Friday night game. The Hawkeyes would absolutely love to (once again) be the reason Nebraska stays home for the holidays.
I’m still optimistic that Nebraska can make a bowl game, but fans going to the game on Saturday need to be ready to bring the energy for four quarters. If I lose my voice willing this team to a bowl game, so be it.
A “Huskerigami” is a final score combination (win or lose) that has never happened in the 130+ year history of Nebraska football.
Final score: 28-20
Is that a Huskerigami? No. It has happened five times before. The first time was a September 24, 1955, loss at #6 Ohio State. The most recent was a November 27, 2015, loss to #3 Iowa.
- Ceyair Wright. You know the old Madden or Sports Illustrated cover jinxes? Nebraska has the opposite going with their pregame graphics. They predicted Brian Buschini’s big game against Ohio State, and absolutely nailed Ceyair Wright’s return to LA. A gigantic pick six and a field goal block that kept Nebraska in the game. Memo to NU’s social media team: put Raiola on the graphic before the Wisconsin game.
- Jahmal Banks. For over a month, we’ve been criticizing Banks for a lack of production and struggling in perimeter blocking. Let’s give credit where it is due: five catches for a team-high 55 yards and several key blocks to extend plays. More please!
- Ty Robinson. Just two tackles, but one was a strip sack recovered by Mikai Gbayor. I’ll have to double check the stats, but I think it was Nebraska’s first strip sack since Grant Wistrom graduated.
- Emmett Johnson. A good proof of concept game for how a running back might be used in Holgorsen’s offense. Ten carries for team-high 55 yards, plus seven receptions and a nice 29-yard touchdown.
- Tight ends. Their production (a combined four catches for 26 yards) doesn’t fly off the stat sheet. But after a summer predicting increased production for Thomas Fidone, Nate Boerkircher, and Luke Lindenmeyer due in part to their position coach calling the plays, it was nice to see them all catch passes in the same game. Even if the irony was palpable.
Honorable mention: Janiran Bonner, Brian Buschini, John Hohl, Dante Dowdell, Marques Buford, Jr., Nash Hutmacher, Jimari Butler, Husker fans in Los Angeles, Nebraska volleyball
- Punt returns. I liked seeing Barney out there as the returner, even if his first return resulted in zero yards. I was baffled as to why Isaiah Garcia-Castaneda fair caught a punt at the four yard line but passed on the chance to fair catch another around the 15 before it rolled inside the 1. The Huskers continue to hemorrhage field position with their pathetic return game
- Rush defense. Woody Marks is a very good back. But I’m not sure he’s a 146-yard, 7.7 YPC back, especially on a bum ankle. The Huskers got gashed – repeatedly – on running plays, often falling for play fakes and over pursing.
- Vertical passing game. Until the final do-or-die drive, Nebraska seemed afraid to throw the ball down the field. We’ve discussed the things that limit NU from being a chuck-it-deep team, but we can see how living and dying with screen passes is working out. For the game, Raiola’s throws went for an average of 7 yards per completion. For comparison, Jayden Maiava got over 10 yards per completion.
- Clock management. We already covered the fourth-down fiasco, but even with that sequence, Nebraska still brought an unused timeout home with them. A timeout that could have been used to stop the clock after Johnson’s three-yard run at midfield in that final drive. NU could have saved 10-15 seconds, which would have given the officials one or two more opportunities to ignore USC holding Nebraska’s receivers.
- Midfield logo beefs. Memo to college football teams: If you’re going to get salty and sassy when teams pray at midfield hours before the game, put a velvet rope around your precious logo. Otherwise, you just look foolish.
