Our Event Traditions
Grand Beginnings
More than a fundraiser, Grand Beginnings is an opportunity to support the school’s educational needs, both in classrooms and in various auxiliary areas. By attending this event you are helping decrease tuition costs, update our classrooms, provide healthy lunches for all students, and meet a host of needs for students and teachers alike.
Golf Tournament
In the spring of 2022, NDA held it’s first Golf Tournament at the Deer Run Golf Club. This event is open to our entire school community and all golf levels are welcome! Save the date for our annual gathering happening on Monday, May 6, 2024.
Marathon
This event has been a Catholic school tradition for over 40 years and a Notre Dame Academy tradition since spring of 2014. The Minnesota Marathon for Nonpublic Education, Inc., is an association of parents, educators, and friends of nonpublic education who promote this yearly event.
Grandparents/VIP Day
NDA is excited to announce that Grandparents and Special Friends Day will be held on Friday, November 10, for all students (toddlers-8th Grade). This year’s event includes a few new activities, including an afternoon time and special one-on-one time together!
NDA students feel a great sense of pride and accomplishment when they can share our amazing school with the people they love. It is a truly special day of celebration. We understand that all children don’t have grandparents, and that some grandparents will be unable to attend. Please consider inviting another important older adult – a family friend, other relative like an aunt or uncle, or a neighbor. It’s sure to be a wonderful experience!
Feel free to contact Vivian Pritchard vpritchard@nda-mn.org if you have questions or would like to help with the event.
This event requires an RSVP. If you have not registered for this event in advance, please email vpritchard@nda-mn.org.
