    #1 Best Private K-12 Schools in Omaha Area

    Senior: As a student who has attended Brownell Talbot since 5th grade, I've found it to be a small, very connected community. Due to small class sizes, teachers are able to give students individual attention they need to succeed. This school promotes itself as being college preparatory for a very good reason in that upper-schoolers are given specific classes dedicated to applying for and handling college...Read 24 Reviews

    Niche User: I knew this school was a good school, which is why I opted into the school before my son attended kindergarten. I feel very blessed that we were accepted. I love everything about this school. It is very small compared to other schools, so everyone knows everyone there. Teachers are very attentive to the kids. The teachers are very talented. You have a good mix of teachers, ranging from new to very experienced. Even the after school program is wonderful. I would recommend this school to anyone...Read 2 Reviews

    • PK, K-8
    • 4 reviews

    Parent: Our son started at Holy Trinity last year during the Pandemic and the school just became our family. Through all sorts of ups and downs, they were incredibly supportive. They addressed the pandemic with thoughtfulness and resourcefulness. We feel fully engaged in the amazing community. The other parents have become great new friends. The administration and teachers are very welcoming and accommodating. The classwork has been so creative and fun for our now Kindergartener. He loves coming to school everyday and has formed great bonds with his classmates. There's great aftercare. We can't wait for our other children to join him...Read 4 Reviews

    Covenant Life School

    • Private School
    • GAITHERSBURG, MD
    • PK, K-12
    • 50 reviews

    Parent: We transferred our children to CLS early in the Pandemic from MCPS to receive in-person schooling so we can continue to work. The amount of dedication and selflessness the staff and teachers displayed during this challenging and stressful time was a testament to their pride in their work and love of God. ...The quality in the schooling is good. Cursive, hand writing, language arts and grammar were deficient in the public schools and I was grateful that it is emphasized here. There was a lot of catching up for my kids! Living a life of good character is discussed regularly. ...My older child’s math did not grow much this year but it was because he was in accelerated math and this is not available at the school. I hope this can change. We are keeping both our children in this school this coming year.Read 50 Reviews

    Bullis School

    • Private School
    • POTOMAC, MD
    • K-12
    • 109 reviews

    Works Here: Bullis is amazing! I am so impressed with the curriculum. Teachers challenge students academically, yet they incorporate a joyful hands-on learning experience. The enriching opportunities are endless in academics, arts, athletics, and service, which provides a well-rounded education and cultivates respect for others, confidence, and the joy of discovery. Faculty, students, and parents are incredibly welcoming and friendly. I grew up in the DC area and assumed a different experience. However, the modern-day folklore that lingers — nothing could be further from the truth! Everyone I've met is genuinely kind, caring, and helpful. I am thrilled to be a part of the Bullis community...Read 109 Reviews
