These are the numbers the school gave the U.S. Department of Education for the 2023-24 school year, published in July 2026. The survey counts students in kindergarten to grade 12, not pre-K. Enrollment and staffing move every year, so ask the school for today’s figures. Where this comes from. Something wrong? Tell us and we will fix it.

St. Mary Elementary School tuition

Questions to ask St. Mary Elementary School

  1. What is the full-year tuition for my child’s grade, and which fees are required on top of it?
  2. Is there a waitlist or an application deadline for my child’s grade?
  3. Do you offer financial aid, sibling discounts or payment plans?

A school is the only source for its current price and open seats. Its website or admissions office can answer these.

Tell me if Nebraska starts a program

Nebraska has no program that pays private school tuition today. It is on the IRS list of states taking part in the federal scholarship tax credit that starts in 2027. Leave your email and we will write once, with the official link, if Nebraska starts a program or scholarships under the federal credit open. That is the only email you get.

One email if that happens. No calls, no sharing your details.
