Supporting Notre Dame High School
WE DEVELOP HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO BE THEIR PERSONAL BEST
For nearly 150 years, Notre Dame High School has strived to develop each student in Mind, Body, and Soul and in so doing, prepare each student to serve God and neighbor in their own individual way.
The mission of the school is to share the Catholic faith in an environment which fosters spiritual growth and academic excellence and embraces religious, academic, cultural, and economic diversity.
The continued success of the school to serve the needs of high school students and prepare them to succeed in the world is directly aided by the gifts and volunteer service of alumni, student families, and the community.

A gift to Notre Dame High School is one of the best ways to make a direct and immediate impact on the unique experience students receive every day.

Great things are happening at Notre Dame High School, and we cannot do it without your support.
