Sponsored Institutions
Since our arrival in California in 1924, the Sisters of Notre Dame have founded and administered in more than 20 schools. Today our sponsored institutions reach students from preschool all the way through high school, and as far away as Uganda.

Join Us
Young women who are interested in learning more about women’s religious life are encouraged to schedule a visit with the sisters. We welcome women for anything from an evening of fellowship to an extended stay, and we would love to have you join us!
