From Notre Dame High School

Notre Dame High School, in the heart of downtown San Jose since 1851, provides young women an exemplary Catholic, college-preparatory education. We are inspired by Saint Julie Billiart and the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.

We empower young women and β€œteach them what they need to know for life.”
