This is a great school. Mr. Valvano is an amazing principal. He has really been a true leader during this difficult time of COVID. My kids love the school and have made many friends. The teachers and administration are very hard-working and caring. It's a smaller school so it may not have some of the activities of larger schools, but the school really makes the most of the resources it has and makes quality education and experience affordable. Thank you so much.

I am so grateful that Notre Dame has become my daughter's school! She is doing so well in the classroom, and is being taught skills she can use outside of school. They teach love and kindness, which is so amazing to see in the world we live in today.
