Skutt Catholic High School

What Skutt Catholic High School does

Skutt Catholic High School (legal name: V.J. and Angela Skutt Catholic High School) is a private, Archdiocesan Catholic college-preparatory high school in Omaha, Nebraska, founded in 1993 under the governance of the Archdiocese of Omaha. It enrolls approximately 720 students in grades 9-12 (52% male, 48% female), with 64 certified faculty and a 51-100 employee overall headcount. Students are drawn from 22 Catholic parishes and 30+ feeder middle schools across 28 Omaha-metro zip codes; 88% are Catholic and 12% non-Catholic, and 28% transfer from public schools. Day-to-day leadership is provided by President Jeremy Moore Ed.D. and Principal Rob Meyers, supported by a Vice President of Finance, VP of Advancement, and functional directors across admissions, counseling, communications, IT, and alumni relations.

The school's core product is a college-preparatory academic program featuring 150+ courses including 17 AP classes and 36 dual enrollment options—the most among Catholic schools in Nebraska—paired with 19 interscholastic athletic opportunities and 30+ student clubs with 92% participation. The technology stack is built around an iPad-based 1:1 device program, Google Workspace (Docs, Sites, Classroom, Forms, Calendar), the Infinite Campus parent portal, OnToCollege for PSAT/ACT/SAT prep, Helper Helper for service-hour tracking, and Cognia accreditation at the highest 'College Prep' level. Distinctive academic offerings include a required freshman Character Skills course combining critical thinking with Catholic social teaching, differentiated retreat programming, free OnToCollege access for every student, and the Living the Gospel community-service requirement contributing 14,000+ hours annually. Two National Blue Ribbon School awards (2012, 2022), 100 NSAA state championships, 23 NSAA Cellular Cups, ACT composite of 25.8, and over $149M in cumulative alumni college scholarships validate academic outcomes.

The business model is nonprofit, operating under tuition plus charitable donations. The 2026-2027 academic year introduces an income-based sliding-scale tuition structured via FACTS Grant and Aid Assessment, with no income ceiling disqualifying families and more than one-third of students receiving reduced tuition; all aid requires work-study participation. Additional revenue comes from a $350 non-refundable registration fee per student, a $400 parish assessment for non-Archdiocesan families, and major fundraising programs including the SkyHawk Fund, Angel Flight annual auction, HawkWalk, Benefit the Birdie Golf Tournament, SkyHawk Cup, endowed scholarships, and the SkyHawk Power Project capital campaign. Distribution is direct-to-family through a year-round admissions pipeline (open houses in November, shadow days, practice exams, freshman applications in January, and entrance exams); marketing reaches families via the website, weekly email newsletter, Facebook and X/Twitter, the parish network, and feeder middle schools.
