Notre Dame Student Leaders
We, the students of Notre Dame High School, supported by and in cooperation with the faculty, do establish and uphold our constitution in order to develop a deeper sense of Christian unity, promote the practice of justice and peace within the school and greater community, provide for more efficient execution of student body business, inspire school spirit, and encourage scholastic achievement.

ASB - Associate Student Body

As leaders of ND, ASB will explore uncharted waters, discovering new ways to put the unity in community.  On the strong foundation of cooperation, communication, and contribution we strive to make waves not only at Notre Dame but throughout the world.  We invite you to dive head first into the unknown, to feel the impact of the splash, making waves of change.

PMLT - Peer Ministry Leadership Team

The Peer Ministry leadership Team seeks to lead, inspire and invite the Notre Dame community to the experience of faith.  Encouraged by the values of spirituality, community, and ministry, these young women will offer love, companionship and hospitality to the community, so that all can explore their spirituality wit openness and encouragement.

SLC - Student Life Committee

The Student Life Committee is made up of students from each grade level who are selected by the Dean of Students and are loyal to the Notre Dame Community. We are entrusted with serving the Notre Dame Community by listening to student needs, representing your ideas and keeping you informed. Our goal is to improve student life at ND and provide a forum where your voices can be heard. We are always here for you and want to hear from you about your concerns.

TASC - Teaching, Advising and Serving our Community

Our Mission is to expand Notre Dame's awareness of the greater community through service and the giving of oneself to others. Learn More

Notre Dame Ambassadors

As the ambassadors of Notre Dame San Jose, it is our mission to serve as representatives of the school, and to communicate the values and experiences surrounding Notre Dame to prospective students and their families. As the link between the school and the community at large, it is our responsibility to be polite, presentable, and friendly, and to accurately and honestly recount our personal experiences as a student and convey the sentiments of the Notre Dame Community.

  • Ambassadors will represent the school in an effort to help recruit incoming high school students. They will learn to present themselves - and thus the entire Notre Dame community – positively and professionally, and will become role models for younger students.
  • Students will learn to organize and lead events for prospective or incoming students. This includes creating ice breakers and activities and leading group discussions, as well as gathering supplies, answering questions, and greeting potential and new students and their families.
  • Students will help organize and participate in school events such as Open House, Frosh Orientation, Class Visits, and High School Information Nights. Students will acquire skills in planning, organizing, and executing important events.
  • Most importantly, Ambassadors promote the school, and provide an accurate and genuine representation of what it means to be a student at Notre Dame.

NHS - National Honor Society

Students do not apply for membership to NHS. Instead, they are invited to join based on the information they provide to the faculty Scholarship Committee. The criteria for selection is set by national bylaws and include a minimum GPA of 3.0, good character, evidence of significant leadership, and community service. Students will submit their information (including service hours, co-curricular activities and leadership) by mid-February and will be informed of the committee’s decision by the end of March. Students must complete and submit the form on Moodle in order to be considered. The following document gives instructions for application and expectations for selection.  NHS Application Instructions
