We are the cornerstone of a proud, passionate, and progressive community where students and staff thrive in a positive and innovative environment and ensure the growth of all individuals by inspiring them to own and maximize their potential. 


Our community is picturesque with tree-lined streets, homes full of character, manicured lawns, green parks, and an exercise trail that circles a lake.  Gothenburg was voted as a 2019 All-America City and a 2022 Community of the Year by the Nebraska Diplomats.  Our progressive community offers a quality of life desired by many but achieved by few.
