Teens from Elmwood Murdock Jr/Sr High School Take Nebraska State Varsity LifeSmarts Title
State Champs to Compete in National LifeSmarts Championship

Murdock, NE — Elmwood Murdock Jr/Sr High School captured the Nebraska Varsity LifeSmarts Championship by successfully fielding questions about real-life marketplace issues at Kearney, NE on December 2, 2025. The 2026 National LifeSmarts Championship will be held in Orlando, FL, April 15– 18, 2026.

State Champion Dec 2025

LifeSmarts, a consumer education competition that challenges teens in grades 6-8 (Junior Varsity) and 9-12 (Varsity) about personal finance, health & safety, the environment, technology & workforce development, and consumer rights & responsibilities, is a program of the National Consumers League. In Nebraska, Chelsey Greene, Nebraska Department of Education, Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education runs the program.

Teens from across the state first competed online for a chance to advance to the in-person state finals held December 2, 2025 in Kearney.

“LifeSmarts participants in Nebraska have gained many of the consumer ‘smarts’ they’ll need to make it in the real world,” said Chelsey Greene, State LifeSmarts Coordinator. “We’re proud to have Elmwood Murdock Varsity represent us in the National LifeSmarts Championship.”

“LifeSmarts empowers students to think critically, avoid scams, make informed financial decisions, and confidently navigate the world around them,” said Cheryl Varnadoe, Program Director of the National LifeSmarts Program. “On behalf of the entire LifeSmarts team, thank you for being a part of our program and congratulations on your victory. We cannot wait to see your team shine in Orlando.”
