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.

NDA's Middle School is About to Build a Canoe! 🛶
We’re thrilled to bring an exciting, hands-on experience to our students this year through a partnership with Catholic Schools Center of Excellence and Urban Wilderness.
As part of a unique STEM-based program, students will work together to build a full-size canoe from the ground up—learning skills like measuring, sawing, sanding, and teamwork along the way. More than just a project, it’s an opportunity to build confidence, strengthen friendships, and bring learning to life in a memorable way. Watch for updates and photos as the canoe comes to life! #ndafaithful
We did it! Because of you, we reached our goal of $150,000 in just 24 hours. Your generosity, encouragement, and faithful prayers made this incredible milestone possible. We are truly grateful for each and every one of you.
“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.”
