Lefler History

Millard Lefler Middle School opened its doors for the first time on September 12, 1955.  Our school is named after Mr. Millard Lefler, a former assistant principal at Lincoln High and superintendent of schools from 1920 to 1948.  During his tenure as superintendent, Mr. Lefler oversaw the implementation of the junior high school system, vocational training in the high schools, and adult education programs in the Lincoln Public Schools.  Lefler is proud to continue his tradition of excellence.
