Who We Are

|
|
| | Dreams of a Catholic school were imagined from the start and became reality in September 1928, when Notre Dame School began its first year serving 130 students.
From our humble beginnings as a small redwood church built in 1870, we have grown to a school of 200 students with 13 teachers and 9 teacher’s aides. Notre Dame School is proud to have kept quality education alive and well for more than 80 years.

|
| | Students at Notre Dame are empowered with Gospel values, Catholic vision, and academic excellence, which lead them to fulfill their unique vocation within the security of a faithful family community.
Founded by the Sisters of Notre Dame in 1928, Notre Dame School continues to provide quality Catholic education to the families of the greater Chico area, primarily serving St. John the Baptist Catholic Church and Our Divine Savior parishes within the Diocese of Sacramento.

| | We recognize families as the prime educators of their children. Encouraged and supported by the students' families and also by others who comprise our community of faith, Notre Dame School serves to create a Catholic Christian atmosphere in which each individual child is nurtured to achieve his or her full and rightful potential--spiritually, intellectually, psychologically, sociologically, aesthetically and physically. Our primary goal is to guide our students toward an understanding of one of the most honorable and fundamental of human creeds: learning is a lifelong process. The center of this process is a love of God, neighbor, self and a respect for the environment. | |
