I have 2girls enrolled in ND high school and they are very prepared for college! We love the college prep curriculum and the help you receive along the way!

Our experience at Notre Dame School has been amazing. The academic rigor, supportive community, and true college-prep focus have exceeded every expectation. I would enthusiastically recommend it to any parent who wants to give their child not just an education, but a powerful foundation for the future.

There wasn't any flexibility with scheduling and I'd like to be able to drop/switch my classes but that was not possible. AP courses are way too selective, especially for some teachers who don't have experience or don't know how to teach the material for the actual AP class. Counselors aren't helpful.
