Chattanooga's Oldest and Most Experienced Private High School

Born of its vision and defined by its Catholic character since 1876, we know how to develop high school students into motivated, prepared and compassionate young adults. While setting the bar high, we meet students where they are academically, socially, spiritually, artistically, and athletically.

As a top-rated, co-educational private high school, we cultivate each student's strengths and Christian faith, while nurturing their self-confidence. Each student is prepared to be their personal best and make a positive difference in the world. 

Our historic mission has changed the lives of thousands of high school students for over 147 years.

 

Our Mission and Values

 

"Notre Dame strives to develop each student fully in Mind, Body, and Soul and in so doing, the whole person is ready to serve God and neighbor, yet each in their own individual ways. Our mission is to share the Catholic faith in an environment which fosters spiritual growth and academic excellence and embraces religious, academic, cultural and economic diversity." - Deacon Hicks Armor, Head of School
