Did you know Notre Dame has a therapy dog named Hank on campus twice a week? He can be found in various offices, the commons, and our spirit shop throughout the day. We love having Hank at NDHS!

Special thanks to The Black Student Union for planning the Black History Month Assembly. This year's theme is Celebrating African Americans and the Arts. We started the assembly with a song and prayer. Following that, students participated in a song quiz with songs made by famous black artists. After this, students performed a praise dance. This was an excellent experience for our students!


Wow!! Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Galentine’s Fundraiser!! NHS could not be more thankful!! We are so proud to say that we raise $1,500 for the Costas Center at Cardinal Glennon!! Thank you again, Rebels🩷💙


If you are interested in ordering a 2024 yearbook, see the quick link under "Current Families" on the ND website or use the link below.
After March 1st, the cost will increase, so order today! You don't want to miss out on this opportunity because last year's publication received awards from the American Scholastic Press Association for best cover and first place overall.
Students will receive their 2024 yearbooks in the fall of 2024. Graduating seniors can pick their books up at Fall Festival or any time after in the main office. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Ellen Royal at eroyal@ndhs.net.

Every Wednesday at ND is Campus Ministry Wednesday. Campus Ministry hosts various events to help our students deepen their faith. These include small groups, Mass, and one of our favorite activities: Nun Buddies! We partner our students with SSND women who are active in the Notre Dame community and do activities to learn about the sisters and our faith. This Wednesday we drew hand turkeys and reflected on what we are thankful for.


Congrats to sophomore Caroline Schoenekase on her time of 22:52.9 (139th place) at the Class 3 State Cross Championship in Columbia. It was a great first season of cross country for Caroline. We look forward to continued success in the next two years.


The talented cast and crew of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe did amazing during their performances! The audience loved being transported to Narnia this past weekend! Great job, Rebels!


Winter sports tryouts start next week! Visit https://www.ndhs.net/page/tryouts to check out the schedule for each sport! Good luck, Rebels!


It was a GREAT day to be a Rebel! We welcomed 6th, 7th and 8th grade visitors to ND for our annual shadow experience, Rebel for a Day. We hope everyone had fun grooving into life at Notre Dame with us! 🪩💃✨


We are excited to announce that Notre Dame High School has received a $50,000 grant for a "fab lab"! Thank you to The Boniface Foundation for this amazing opportunity for our students!
The fab in “fab lab” is short for fabrication. The lab’s intent is to give students a chance to produce marketable items. Students are given an opportunity to become familiar with professional equipment generally confined to specialty businesses. The emphasis is on the design-to-production process. Students use software to develop and design a product, produce the product, and then potentially market it.
- We will have eight 3D printers.
- There will be milling machines for shaping and cutting metal and other hard materials, including the add-ons to produce custom circuit boards for electronic devices.
- We have a pro laser cutter that can be used for precision cuts and engravings.
- We will have a large professional sticker printer that can be used to print full color stickers, including the die cuts for custom shapes, ranging from very large to very small. This machine can also make vinyl signs and print heat transfers for custom clothing and apparel.
We are excited to see what our students create and to share updates about our fab lab with the Notre Dame community!


The application to join our Class of 2028 is OPEN! Visit ndhs.info/apply and click “Apply HERE” to start your app. Want one more look at the life of an ND student? Register for a shadow visit at ndhs.net/page/visit.
