Saint Joseph Notre Dame High School

A Comprehensive Program

Saint Joseph Notre Dame provides a comprehensive physical education program for all of its students as well as an interscholastic athletics program. All students are encouraged to participate in one or more of the sports teams that are offered. The athletics program is designed to provide optimum opportunities for all students to integrate physical development with the academic, religious, and social values of SJND High School and add to a sense of school spirit and identity.
