About

We are a welcoming school that honors and celebrates diversity within our community, built on our Catholic faith. We inspire our students in the pursuit of excellence in the development of their God-given talents to Know, Love and Serve God within society. Notre Dame Regional Secondary School seeks to educate the whole student — the body, the mind, and the spirit. We foster the formation of Christian leaders, responsible citizens and life-long learners in a Catholic environment. A Notre Dame Juggler typifies the core value of community, symbolizing each person's unique and distinctive contribution to our school. If anyone withholds participation from the group effort, a piece of the total picture of school life is missing; when everyone participates, the picture is complete. Furthermore, we need to juggle the many aspects of life at Notre Dame and maintain a proper balance between activities in and out of the classroom.
