History

The school was created by the consolidation of three former Catholic high schools: St. Joseph Academy, an all-girls school founded in 1896; Abbot Pennings High School, an all-boys school founded in 1898 as St. Norbert High School; and Our Lady of Premontre High School, an all-boys school founded in 1941 as Catholic Central High School. Premontre later became co-ed shortly before the three separate Catholic high schools merged.

Since its creation in 1990, the school has maintained a focus on an independent college preparatory curriculum. In April 2007, it received authorization from the International Baccalaureate Organization to include the IB Diploma Program in its curriculum.

Extracurriculars

In the 1990s, Notre Dame had a competitive show choir called The Guys and Gals.[2] Today, NDA houses a number of clubs like Chinese Club, the Tritones, Chess Club, Gamer's Union, ASTRA, and STING Cancer.

Athletics

Notre Dame's athletic teams are known as the Tritons, and compete in the Fox River Classic Conference of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association. The school has won twenty-six state championships, the 15th most in WIAA history.[3]
