A Learning Community
Notre Dame High School, San Jose is the center for women’s leadership in Silicon Valley and has provided an exceptional Catholic college preparatory education for young women since 1851. The school's mission is guided by the teachings of Saint Julie Billiart, the foundress of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, with a strong focus on social justice to create lifelong learners, spiritual seekers, justice advocates and community leaders. Our mission, summarized by the words of Saint Julie Billiart, is to “teach them what they need to know for life.”
The Program
The Mission and Ministry cohort of Campus Ministry and Religious Studies provides essential programming and curriculum in student formation that promotes a Catholic in the 21st century commitment to spiritual discernment, multi-faith dialogue, and justice advocacy.
Through Notre Dame’s culture of Education for Justice and Leadership, Campus Ministry team members develop deliberate pastoral connections to accompany diverse students and partner in an integrated design for curriculum and program across a variety of departments to develop women of impact.
