In 1924 eleven pioneer Sisters of Notre Dame came to Los Angeles, California from Cleveland, Ohio. Since then, the Notre Dame charism has flourished through the lives and ministries of the sisters of the California province. Like the general population of Southern California, the sisters represent a variety of nationalities and cultures. We proclaim God's goodness through our lives, using the unique talents of each sister and respond to the needs of the Church and the world.
Reflecting the universal missionary spirit characteristic of the congregation, sisters from the California province currently serve in Italy, Uganda and Southern California. In 1995 two sisters from the California province, together with two sisters from the Kentucky province, pioneered the Notre Dame mission in Uganda.
The Sisters of Notre Dame sponsor the following institutions in California:

Dame Academy
Elementary School

Dame Academy High School

Reina High School

Today they serve in a wide variety of ministries, including spiritual direction and retreats as well as in schools, parishes, social service agencies and archdiocesan offices. Like Southern California, the sisters represent a variety of nationalities and cultures.
