Saint Michael Catholic School believes that no student should be denied a quality Catholic education base on financial reasons. There are several financial aid and scholarship options available to our families. See the links below for more information.
FACTS
The FACTS system is a financial need verification system, very similar to the FAFSA program for post-secondary education.
Family Tuition Cap Scholarship
Beginning in the 2025-2026 academic year, The Family Tuition Cap Scholarship is no longer available through the Good Shepherd Scholarship program. St. Michael Parish will continue to fund family cap scholarships for families who are within 225% of the Federal Poverty Level and have more than three students in grades Kindergarten through 12th grade who attend St. Michael Catholic School and/or Pius X Catholic High School. The scholarship will cover the cost of tuition for the 4th and each subsequent student registered at St. Michael. Families will be responsible for all other fees. Families must apply in FACTS to be considered for the St. Michael Parish Family Cap Scholarship.
The Good Shepherd Scholarship
The application deadline for the 2026-2027 school year has been extended to April 15, 2026

Opportunity Scholarships
St. Michael school is a qualified school under this program and working with Opportunity Scholarships of Nebraska (OSN). OSN is partnering with FACTS Management for the application process. An eligible student must be entering kindergarten; 9th grade or transferring into any grade from a public school. If a family has one student receiving an Opportunity Scholarship, all siblings of that student residing in the same household may also qualify.
