School Improvement

The department of School Improvement leads continuous school improvement planning that drives progress toward the priorities outlined within the Omaha Public Schools Strategic Plan of Action. The school improvement team partners with the Nebraska Department of Education to support our students and schools.

The department of Enterprise Strategy & Innovation guides the implementation and adjustment of the district's strategic plan of action. We work closely with department leaders on the development of appropriate strategies to operationalize the direction of the district while providing insight in reshaping the work of each department based on emerging trends.

Strong principals are essential to quality schools. They set the example for effective teaching and find opportunities to increase student learning. Principal Supervisors support principals in their growth and leadership. Principal Supervisors provide support to families who have questions beyond their school principal.  

Omaha Public Schools believes strongly in providing opportunities for staff to learn and grow in their profession and as leaders. We support current and aspiring leaders in every aspect of our organization. 

The Grant Office supports the academic and social-emotional growth of all students through the coordination of prioritized funding initiatives, grant applications, technical assistance, regulatory oversight, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), compliant use of federal, state, and private funding.
