A Message from the President's Office

Dear Notre Dame Families,

We are writing to you today to consider a unique opportunity.  

If you are an alumnae/alumnus of NDA/St. Joseph Academy/Abbot Pennings/Premontre, you stand in a special position of helping to define the positive impact that the school can have on the individual lives of students. In this capacity you possess a special quality to share with students and other families.

NDA is in the process of developing an Alumni Association. Whereas, the graduates of Abbot Pennings, Premontre, and St. Joseph Academy are often advocates for their individual communities as they stay in touch with each other, and often become parents of NDA students. The graduates of Notre Dame Academy do not have formal structures around which they organize, stay in touch with each other, and share the good news to support the school.

NDA needs an Alumni Coordinator to direct the engagement and collaboration required for the overall direction of the Association’s vision of connecting and supporting alumni as they reconnect with NDA.  

Click here to view our working job description for your reference and reflection. The position is envisioned for this year as a part-time stipended role. (5-10 hrs/wk, variable) As the description implies, this is a work in progress and will be evaluated as the work and role develops.

We ask that you consider this role for yourself or another alumnae/alumnus with whom you are acquainted. We will be accepting applications shortly, and will develop an interview process for the position.

This position is a key part of NDA's future as we more fully engage the community in all its dimensions. Contact Char Dunlap, Executive Assistant to the President, at cdunlap@notredameacademy.com

IB Parent Meetings - First Meeting on September 12

Mr. Schultz would like to invite any parent who has a student currently in an IB class to join him at the monthly IB Parent Meeting. These meetings are designed to help answer questions about the IB Diploma Program and give insight to the various assessments and activities taking place throughout the year. 

Many of the discussions will revolve around full diploma candidate topics, but all are welcome. There is no obligation for anyone to attend. All meetings will be held virtually this year and will usually take place on the second Monday of each month at 7:00 p.m. The first meeting will be on Monday, September 12, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. 

If you are interested in joining the IB Parent meeting, please email Matt Schultz (mschultz@notredameacademy.com) so he can send you the Zoom Meeting link.

Required DPI Form for all Families

Notre Dame Academy is required by the DPI to annually survey our families and record economic status. It is important that we gather responses from all families as this may impact our ability to obtain any government funding in the future. If you have multiple students attending NDA in the 2022-23 school year, please fill this out for EACH student. 

Find this form by logging into your PowerSchool Parent portal and click on "Forms" on the left side to find the "DPI Household Income Survey" link.

Finally, the program currently has two students enrolled in Youth Apprenticeship. One student is working in the lab at the Green Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant and the other is a CNA at Bellin.
