While I don't have exact figures at hand, I can tell you that some of the more expensive private high schools in Nebraska include Brownell Talbot School and Concordia Jr./Sr. High School, based on their reputations.

Now, as to whether attending a private school in Nebraska is worth the cost, will heavily depend on your circumstances and what you are hoping to gain from your education. Private schools often offer more individualized attention due to smaller class sizes, diverse course offerings, and sometimes, a more focused environment. This can be beneficial for students who thrive in such settings.

However, it's important to remember that the public school system in Nebraska is also quite strong, with schools like Millard North High School and Elkhorn South High School receiving high ratings for their academics and college prep.

A good course of action is to consider what the student wants from their high school education and then evaluate the offerings of both private and public schools in your area. Tour the schools, talk to students and teachers, and explore their extracurricular offerings.

Lastly, consider the financial impact. While private schools can offer unique advantages, if the cost is going to strain your family's finances, it may be worth considering public or charter schools that perform well academically. Some private schools do offer scholarships and financial aid, so be sure to inquire about these options if you choose to go the private school route.

So in essence, the value of attending a private high school in Nebraska largely depends on the specifics of the school, the student's educational priorities, and your family's financial situation.
