Toddlers through Grade 8
Having faith in all children, Notre Dame Academy is a welcoming, regional Catholic school in Minnetonka, MN offering preschool through eighth grade. Our students receive an education that is taught with kindness, inclusiveness, and a commitment to the whole child. Each student has the opportunity to learn, grow and work toward their unique potential.
Academic Excellence in a Faith-Centered Community
The Notre Dame Academy Preschool Program offers flexible, year-round school for children ages two to five. Our dedicated teachers share a love of early learning and strive for excellence in Catholic education.
Our teachers provide academic rigor and strong education outcomes by developing the minds, hearts, and souls of our children in a faith-centered environment and a nurturing community.
Ensuring our families have access to valuable news, forms, and other online resources is very important to us.
Curriculum
Notre Dame Academy prides itself on providing a challenging, yet fun curriculum for all grade levels. We know that students learn the best when they are engaged, curious, and hands-on. We use several different types of curriculums across the core subjects as well as Spanish and various forms of fine arts opportunities. Our students leave Notre Dame Academy prepared to tackle college prep courses no matter what high school they choose to attend. We believe in developing well rounded students within a strong community that offers a comprehensive curriculum with differentiation available to meet each student’s needs.

Children at Notre Dame Academy flourish when they are surrounded by people who know them deeply, believe in who they are becoming and remind them where they come from.
Last weekend was our NDA Women's Weekend up north! These lovely ladies spent time together outdoors and away from the kids! 😉
This opportunity is made available through our Grand Beginnings silent auction this year. We'd like to thank our co-chairs for organizing the weekend again this year.

When children learn to notice another person’s needs, they begin to discover how their own gifts can make a difference.
Catholic education gives them opportunities to put Christ’s love into action. Through service, students practice generosity and grow in their understanding of the dignity of every person.
Your generosity carries that lesson forward. A donation to NDA helps more children learn in a community where caring for others is part of growing in faith.
Our Day of Giving is November 18th. Please help us reach $100,000 and make this education accessible to more students.

“Both of my girls have attended this school since preschool. If you ever have the opportunity to support Catholic Schools for your children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren, I highly recommend it. This has been the best opportunity for their self esteem, faith, community and personal well being.”
