What We Do

The schools in the CUES School System– Sacred Heart, All Saints, and Holy Name – anchor their east Omaha neighborhoods and provide a safe place for students to learn academic, social, and interpersonal skills. Many CUES families face difficult financial circumstances and simply cannot afford to pay the full tuition of $2,800. They choose our Schools to give their children a faith-based education. CUES students thrive in a culture of love, kindness, and excellence.
CUES Schools serve nearly 600 students. Class sizes are small. Relationships are long-standing and consistent. From pre-K through 8th grade, students, their parents, and families are part of the school community, and their life stories are known to CUES teachers and staff. We provide wrap-around support to the entire family, connecting them to outstanding community partners like Boys Town, Completely Kids, and Hope Center for Kids, to create a school-wide culture of support 
All of our families receive financial assistance. No child is turned away because of their family’s inability to pay 
Planning has begun for the 2023-2024 school year. Your donation gives our students the same opportunities as those in other parts of Omaha. Thank you for your support!
