Your school. Your choice. Our mission.

Nebraska’s nonpublic school association, serving members across type and denomination.

We advance your interests

NCNS brings all Nebraska nonpublic schools—across types and denominations—together as a unified force to create value for member schools, partner organizations, and families.

Let us help you lift the load, so you can serve your school community & children.

Nonpublic Schools

Elementary, middle, and secondary nonpublic schools across the state are our members. We provide services for school leaders, boards, and educators.

Partner Organizations

The overarching entities that lead or provide services to nonpublic schools are our partners. We provide services and assistance to expand their reach and effectiveness.

Families

A school is an empty building without students. We inform families of their local nonpublic school options and work to expand their choices.

The Nebraska Coalition of Nonpublic Schools began with a group of nonpublic school administrators and advocates deciding now is the time to come together to defend and promote nonpublic education in the Good Life.

Nonpublic education is a vibrant and vital segment of the education landscape in Nebraska. We are for your school and your educational choices.
