Seasonal Athletics Fee

Notre Dame Preparatory School assesses a seasonal Athletics Fee for students participating in interscholastic sports. This fee helps cover the costs associated with running a high-quality athletics program, including coaching, required uniform items, officials, transportation, equipment, and other essential expenses. The fee is charged per season of participation and supports NDP’s commitment to providing a competitive and well-rounded athletic experience for our student-athletes. The Upper Level Seasonal Athletics Fee for the 2025–2026 school year is $250 per sport each season (Fall, Winter, Spring).
