Women in Leadership


Notre Dame’s all-girls environment encourages girls to take leadership positions in every aspect of the school. At Notre Dame, all the scholars are girls, all the artists are girls, all the varsity athletes are girls, all the editors and journalists are girls, and all the ASB and class officers are girls.

Notre Dame offers students leadership opportunities within the school community and helps them grow as servant leaders who answer the call of social justice within the greater community.

An all-girls’ school offers an environment where academic achievement is valued and does not conflict with social acceptance.

Notre Dame is led by a team of individuals highly experienced in education, business and nonprofit management who have seen first-hand the benefits of an all-girls environment.

"In an all-girl's school you just feel a lot more comfortable, both with the things you say and with the way you look.  It definitely gives you a lot of confidence, and I find myself carrying this confidence with me even after I step off campus."
