Faith & Service

Christian Service

Our Program

The Christian Service program at Notre Dame High School flows directly from the Mission of the school and the Integral Student Outcomes. We are here to educate the hearts and minds of our students, to do as Jesus taught us to do, as described by Fr. Basil Moreau and the Congregation of Holy Cross.
