While walking through their campus, I was impressed with the look of a mini college layout. Their swim facilities are clean and forehead temperatures are taken before you are allowed to enter their building. Parking is challenging when parents are picking up or dropping off students. I've been raised on public school educational offerings and understand why this institution has been around since the late 1800's and why parents would consider this college preparatory school over public school education in Omaha, regardless of annual tuition costs.

My kid goes here and he's been dealing with bullying. The school insists they do not allow bullying. I wish they'd open their eyes and stop denying there's a problem here. Teachers I've spoken with says Buffett used to be a good school until 4-5 ish years ago. They all say the same things. I've been doing a lot of digging lately because of the stuff my kid has been going through. The stuff OPS allows is absolutely sickening. The ratings for the entire district are well below average. This school in particular practices collective punishment- punishing an entire grade for the actions of a few. They took snack time away from every kid in 7th grade because they had problems with some kids popping chip bags. The email went out to only 7th grade students, not parents. Collective punishment is what they do in the military it's not meant for children in school. It is a lazy way of not getting to the bottom of a real issue and promotes bullying. It also creates resentment from the students who do nothing wrong. Of all the things good students do for this school, punishing them when the typical problem kids mess up, is wrong.

I still have a massive collection of t-shirts from my years here - Spanish Club, after prom, class shirts, etc. Want to be prepared for college? Look no further. AP and honors classes galore. Want to do sports? Marian is the winning school with some of the best coaches. Want a sense of community and connections that'll last a lifetime? Oh that's definitely Marian. I still know the "Marian beat" by heart. And you've never seen a Field Day like what it is at Marian. Just going to Marian puts you in a special club with connections and friendships and community that last a lifetime. I tell everyone to go here. And I shall continue to do so. And oh my how the campus has grown and just gotten better! It's an absolutely stellar opportunity and experience.
