All Saints Catholic School draws from seven distinct parishes: Immaculate Conception, St. Frances Cabrini, St. Joseph, St. Mary Magdalene, St. Patrick, St. Peter and St. Rose. The school was founded to fill the needs of the families in downtown and southeastern Omaha.
The mission of All Saints Catholic School is to create a safe learning environment for our culturally diverse students. We strive to meet Archdiocesan and Nebraska State Standards as determined by ongoing assessments. We commit to recognizing and nurturing individual academic abilities while supporting the intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual growth of each student. Our goal is to guide our students toward fulfilling their God-given potential. [1]
Students attend Mass two times a week, parents are strongly encouraged to participate in Mass services, and students also have the opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation every three months during the school year. All School Masses are held on any holy day when the students are in attendance.
During the month of May students honor Mary, the Mother of God, through a crowning ceremony. The students proceed from St. Frances Cabrini Church to St. Joseph Church, during which time students pray the Rosary. The May Crowning Queen is elected from among the eighth grade girls. The teacher and administration give nominees to the Pastor for a final decision.
Students at All Saints Catholic School are taught traditional Catholic prayers and informal petition prayers over the course of their K-8 attendance.
In addition to a rich academic life, many All Saints Students participate in sports through the Catholic Youth Organization. Boys and girls alike take part in basketball, while girls are also able to play volleyball.
