History

Nearly seven decades ago, three small rural Omaha school districts joined together to form one school district. The guiding principal behind the unification was that the new school district would be guided by high standards of excellence, innovation, and community. Accompanying the creation of District 66 was the birth of a community of education which endures today bridging various Omaha area neighborhoods with a common purpose. The highly coveted district, dedicated to excellence, has also added value to the Westside area way of life.
