St. Teresa School Mission Statement
St. Teresa Catholic School, in partnership with parents, provides an education faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church. We nurture students’ natural sense of wonder and guide them to know and love truth, beauty, and goodness, and to live as virtuous disciples of Jesus Christ with their hearts set on true and lasting joy.
Nebraska Catholic Day of Giving
This past January, we had to close school for 3 days, because of extremely low temperatures in the school. We do not want to miss out on the opportunity of educating our children on those days in the future. Help our school with its temperature regulation, by donating toward insulation in the upper regions of our nearly 100-year-old building. We are collecting funds towards this $10,000 project.
For close to 100 years, the St. Teresa School community has been involved in the education of young people. We look forward to continuing this important endeavor, allowing us to bring Christ’s desire to spread the Gospel to all ends of the earth.
Thank you for your generosity and support of St. Teresa School!

Why choose a Catholic school for your child?
The goal in life is to know, love and serve God, so that we may one day live eternally with Him in Heaven. St. Teresa Catholic School helps our students walk this journey of faith every day through daily Mass, monthly confessions, and Eucharistic Adoration. Our teachers and staff bring God, and our faith, into every classroom on a daily basis, helping the students to keep God as their central focus in life.
The dignity of each individual comes from acknowledging that each child is a gift from God, and a child of God, made in His image and likeness. This is the basis of our St. Teresa School Family (Administration, Teachers, Staff, Parents, and Students).
St. Teresa Catholic School nurtures vocations to the married life, the priesthood, and the religious life by teaching and encouraging students to respond to the vocation to which God is calling them in order that they may fulfill God’s plan for their lives. Herein lies their true happiness.
The Mission of the Catholic School System of the Diocese of Lincoln is to form students spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically, in partnership with parents, and in harmony with the specific gifts given by God to each student. In order to fulfill this mission, these schools are committed to integrating the best programs and means of education with Catholic faith and moral values.

Our History
Our school began in 1930, four years after our parish was established. Two Dominican Sisters from Saint Catherine, Kentucky, began teaching 23 students in two rooms furnished only with the bare necessities. By 1940, enrollment reached 110, and in 1948, St. Teresa School became an accredited junior high. Today St. Teresa School serves more than 300 Pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade students guided by the School Sisters of Christ the King.
