All Notre Dame students are required to wear the school uniform and abide by the uniform guidelines. 

Educational Outfitters is Notre Dame's primary uniform partner. You can shop both online and in their East Brainerd store.

Tommy Hilfiger Uniforms is a new uniform vendor option.  The online store for the 2022-2023 school year is open.

Our Home & School Association also hosts Used Uniform sales throughout the year.

With changes made to the NHDS uniform policies, we'd like to clarify the phase out process: blue pleated pants, white short sleeve, and yellow button down shirts will not be accepted after this school year. Parents should NOT buy those items. If your child has these items from previous years, they are welcome to wear them for this school year. Former green polo shirts with the gold logo are also being phased out.  Students were told this information last school year. Students may continue to wear these polos through the end of the first quarter. Starting in October, only green polos with the updated logo may be worn. 

All students are required to bring a fully-charged laptop to school daily. For a list of device specifications, click here.

All student athletes must have a current physical on file before attending practice.  Students can turn the form into the Athletic Trainer, their coach, or upload the form to the DragonFly platform. 

Instructions for DragonFly can be found here. NHDS school code is 22M3VG

In order to play any sport at NDHS, there is a required one-time per year athletics fee. Regardless if students play more than one sport, the fee is set at $125.00 per student.

In order to pay online, please click here. If you'd like to discuss payment options, please contact Jill Webb: webbj@myndhs365.com or 423-642-4618.

Classes begin at 8:25 AM each morning, with the first bell to walk to class ringing at 8:20 AM. Students should arrive with time to visit their locker and be ready for first class by the 8:20 AM bell. Students can be dropped off as early as 7:30 AM.

Notre Dame High School offers paid breakfast and lunch by Pedestal Foods, that is offered to students each full school day. On scheduled 1/2 days, or during exams, food is not provided. 

Students have the option to purchase meal plans via check or cash, or pay as needed through the My School Bucks app available for download on both IOS and Android. Checks need to be made out to Pedestal Foods, and ALL check or cash payments need to be given to Pedestal Foods directly. Once the Meal Plan form is completed, students should give that, plus the cash or check payment to Pedestal Foods in the cafeteria.

Pedestal Foods is happy to offer a variety of food options to students daily. Menus are on a rotational cycle with each cycle representing a week. 

Students are now required to use their school year planner as part of an updated hall pass system. This is to ensure student safety and is an added measure to make certain of the whereabouts of all students in case of a school emergency.
