When you step onto our campus, you become part of a story that began over 150 years ago. Much has changed since the days of Notre Dame of Maryland Institute for Young Ladies on Charles Street. Much has stayed the same. The traditions we honor unite us. Everything from the Gateway Ceremony during the first month of school, to the candlelit Christmas liturgy, to the adrenaline-pumping countdown to Field Day will remind you of this: you are part of a long and storied tradition of girls who go on to transform the world. Forged in the day-to-day interactions, our Catholic faith, long-standing traditions, and special moments, the Notre Dame Prep experience makes for lifelong friendships. As a student here, you are immediately part of a large and loving sisterhood.
Join us for our Open House – Saturday, October 18, 2025, 8:30 a.m. – 12 p.m.
