Pius X leadership, together with our parish pastors and the Diocese of Lincoln, have embarked on this ambitious campaign to positively impact all aspects of the Pius X student experience. In doing so, we will ensure a strong Catholic high school in Lincoln for generations to come.

Forward

While we are proud of our rich history, this campaign is focused on assertively moving forward with a bold vision for our future. The planned improvements will provide for the needs of future generations of Thunderbolts and our Lincoln Catholic community.

Faith

Our authentic Catholic faith guides all that we do. The Lord is our compass as we teach our young disciples how to navigate in a complex world. This campaign reflects our devotion to Christ as we seek to expand and beautify our sacred chapel.

Excellence

This is the standard of achievement we seek in all our endeavors. This campaign will dramatically improve our campus facilities and provide our students with the tools they need to excel in academics, arts and athletics.
