From our clubs to our athletic programs there is something for every student who wants... to make the most of her NDA experience! At Notre Dame Academy, the arts are an integral part of the curriculum an essential ingredient in a fully rounded education. Our philosophy of education at Notre Dame Academy, a Catholic, college preparatory school for young women grades 7-12, is built on the belief that education should prepare students for their role as women in the world.
