Omaha Public Schools is tackling a $50 million budget shortfall caused by a state miscalculation—with plans to cut staff raises, hike property taxes modestly, and tap $27 million in reserves. Students won’t see changes as the district pushes forward with its ambitious “moonshot” goal: getting all kids reading at grade level by 2030. Progress is already showing: Adams Elementary jumped from 38% to 56% proficiency, Indian Hill from 9% to 35%, and Chandler View from 33% to 63%. Serving 52,000 students across 100 languages—with many qualifying for free or reduced lunch—this progress proves resilience and commitment to equity, even amid financial strain.
