Welcome to Notre Dame High School. Thank you for taking the time to visit our website.
Notre Dame is a co-educational Roman Catholic high school within the Diocese of Allentown. Deeply rooted in Catholic faith and intellectual traditions, Notre Dame High School is committed to the spiritual, academic, social, and athletic development of our students. While at Notre Dame, our students grow in a caring environment that nurtures community, friendship, compassion, respect, sacrifice, hard work, citizenship, and faith. At Notre Dame, you are seen as an individual with unique talents, interests, and challenges!
Through excellence in teaching, we provide an academic program that prepares our students for college, the trades, and service to our local community and our country. Our diverse course offerings encourage each student to grow in their strengths and develop new passions. Over 16 Advanced Placement courses provide rigorous coursework with an emphasis on college preparedness. The Aquinas Program allows students the opportunity to work with a mentor teacher for individualized learning support.
Our Campus Ministry Department and Theology classes afford each student an opportunity to engage in an authentic dialogue on matters of faith and religion. All students participate in an annual retreat experience, and the Kairos program is offered twice annually to 11th and 12th graders who wish to examine their relationship with God in a deep and meaningful way. We gather regularly for school Liturgies, prayer services, and opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Our athletic program has a long history of success and our scholar-athletes have garnered numerous league, district, and state championship titles. Currently, Notre Dame offers over 20 clubs and student organizations including community service, speech and debate, theatre, and music. We believe that the discipline and perseverance gained by participating in athletics and extra-curricular activities teach valuable skills that will accompany our students for life.
Please come and visit the wonderful, faith-filled, and supportive environment we provide at Notre Dame. I look forward to welcoming you to our Crusader family!
Sincerely yours, in Our Lady,
Jaclyn Friel
