WE ARE NOTRE DAME

From Pre-K through 12th grade, Notre Dame Schools offer a nurturing, personalized, faith-based environment.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE

  • Small class sizes offer a structured, disciplined, and rigorous academic curriculum.
  • Notre Dame's use of the iReady program, a personalized pathway to learning (K-8), leads to a comprehensive portfolio program (9-12) to develop strong writing skills and mathematical processes.
  • Notre Dame emphasizes a technology-driven course of study; all students K-12 possess a Chromebook or iPad, which are used daily in all classes. 
  • Notre Dame offers a college preparatory environment, allowing students the opportunity to earn more than 60 college credits. In addition, with access to our bridge program at Utica University and many dual enrollment classes at MVCC, many students complete their first year of college while enrolled at Notre Dame.

EXTRACURRICULAR OPPORTUNITIES

Students also have many opportunities to participate in interscholastic and intramural sports, music, drama, and other activities. Highlights include:

  • Notre Dame features an award-winning, nationally-ranked NJROTC sponsored by the U.S. Navy; for students in 8th through 12th grades. NJROTC is a citizenship and leadership development program, teaching self-discipline, leadership, respect, and self-determination skills to assist students in accomplishing life goals.
  • Notre Dame's Campus Ministry allows students to participate in faith formation activities and community service projects. Our commitment to civic engagement enables them to see the plight of those less fortunate and develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.
  • Notre Dame, home of the Juggler Spirit, cultivates competitive athletic teams characterized by teamwork and good sportsmanship. Our hope is that our student-athletes will incorporate Christian values into life-long patterns of behavior.
