An NDP Education
Collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking are central to Notre Dame Preparatory School's academic program. NDP's students challenge themselves and succeed in a rigorous and exciting program of study, led by an experienced, talented, and committed faculty.
Middle Level
NDP’s Middle Level serves adolescent girls who possess both the motivation and the ability to succeed in a rigorous academic curriculum while immersed in the spiritual and extracurricular life of the school.
Developmentally appropriate, the program features engaging and active learning that spans all disciplines. After completing the Middle Level experience, our students are prepared for high school having become more loving, just, and wise.
Upper Level
NDP’s Upper Level college prep curriculum provides both foundational liberal arts classes and subject-specific courses designed to ignite passions. All classes are required for admission into the nation’s leading colleges and universities and include:
- 190+ courses, including 26 Advanced Placement (AP) courses
- Electives in art, music, writing, economics, social issues, drama, and major subject areas
- A unique multi-phased approach to learning enabling each student to work at her own level of ability in each subject
- Special programs in STEAM (STEM + Art) and the Bette Ellis O’Conor Humanities Program allowing the student to focus her interest
Each year, 100% of NDP seniors gain admission to the country’s most competitive colleges and universities, are inducted into 14 honor societies, receive National Merit recognition, and attain high scores on both SAT and AP exams. In addition to their academic achievements, they win awards in drama, art, essay writing, and music, demonstrating that Notre Dame Preparatory School students are as well rounded as they are well prepared.
