Faith-Filled Learning for Every Child

Imagine your child walking into a school where they’re known by name, encouraged to do their best, and supported every step of the way. At St. Wenceslaus Catholic School, students grow in faith, build strong academic skills, and develop the character and confidence they need to thrive. Our dedicated teachers work closely with families, inspire a love of learning, and help students deepen their relationship with Christ each day. It’s a welcoming community where children are challenged, cared for, and prepared for the future.

St. Wenceslaus School forms students for life and eternity. Rooted in Catholic values, we cultivate wisdom, character, faith, and academic excellence, helping each child discover their God-given gifts and purpose.

Every Student Receives Tuition Assistance

A Seamless Education Experience, 7-12th Grade

St. Wenceslaus School partners with Bishop Neumann Jr./Sr. High School to provide a seamless education from preschool through 12th grade. Beginning in 7th grade, students transition to the Bishop Neumann campus, where they continue to grow academically, spiritually, and socially in a faith-filled environment. This partnership allows students to build on the strong foundation established at St. Wenceslaus while benefiting from expanded academic opportunities, extracurricular activities, leadership development, and college and career preparation.

History

For more than a century, since 1910, St. Wenceslaus School has been a cornerstone of Catholic education in the Wahoo community. What began as a small parish school has grown into a thriving Pre-K through 6th grade learning community, expanding its facilities over the years to meet the needs of a growing student population, including major additions in 1989, 1995, and 2022.

St. Wenceslaus has remained committed to academic excellence rooted in the Christian faith. Through rigorous academics, faith formation, weekly Mass, and service opportunities, we partner with families to develop knowledgeable, compassionate, and faith-filled students who are prepared to make a positive impact on their communities and the world.
