About Us

What Makes Saint Bernadette Special?

• Small School, Big Impact

  With around 250 students each year, our teachers know every child – not just their name, but how they learn, what motivates them and where they may need support. Smaller class sizes mean your child won’t get lost in the crowd and yet still have plenty of opportunities to form friendships and participate in clubs and sports. 

• Strong Academics

  

  In all grades, students have access to a wide range of technology to support their learning, including iPads, Chromebooks, Macbooks, 3D printers and more. In middle school, students take elective courses and start to get a feel for what high school is like so the transition is smooth. SBS is the only Catholic school in the Archdiocese of Omaha that shares a campus with a high school. This means SBS prepares students for success in high school, college and their future careers by equipping them with the critical thinking and problem-solving skills (and confidence!) that they need to succeed. 

• Faith Development

  

  Our parish and school operate as one faith community. Students participate in weekly Mass, monthly Adoration, student-led prayer, sacramental preparation and service projects that put faith into action. 

• Feels Like Family

  

  We have some families who have been part of our school community for years. But for many families, St. Bernadette is the first experience with a Catholic school. Whether you’re moving to Bellevue after being stationed at Offutt AFB, or you’re new to the area for another reason, our community will wrap you in open arms. Parents here volunteer together, cheer together on the sidelines and build friendships that last for years. Your children will belong here – and your whole family will feel it fast.
