Welcome to NDHS!

Thank you for considering Notre Dame for your high school experience. We do not consider Notre Dame Regional High School to be just an academic institution; rather, it is a “community.” This community is made up of students, faculty and staff, parents, alumni, friends and benefactors. What makes this community so unique is that each member, regardless of role, is dedicated to the personal growth and development of one another. All share in the common trait of giving. Each gives of themselves in the form of time, knowledge, experience and talent. Every one of these gifts is given selflessly, abundantly and with pride. And each gift is given for the benefit of the community.

This notion of community is what we refer to as the “Notre Dame Difference.” Although Notre Dame is constructed of bricks and mortar, its foundation and backbone are built upon the people in the community. Our hope is that you will choose to be a part of our growing community. As a regional Catholic high school, we prepare students academically for college and the workforce. As a community, we prepare everyone involved for the rest of their life’s journey.

Tim R. Garner, M.Ed.
