Notre Dame School

"Top the school"

"Impressive...Impressive. What an incredible place for you girls to become young ladies."

"I graduated from Notre Dame in the mid 90's so I cannot speak with any relevance to the schools current academic curriculum or activities. But, I can say this---I have done well and it is due in large part to the foundation that Notre Dame provided. I am conversant on a range of topics and can fit in almost every level of society and a broad range of academic circles. I am knowledgeable about physics, art, literature, business and so much more. The small classroom meant I could not hide. I could not be invisible and despite my best efforts to only like some classes and ignore others, I am even pretty decent in math. This became handy when I later decided I wanted to go to business school. People often assumed with my sharp wit and erudite manner--I must have been top of my class. And that is far from true. My purpose of Notre Dame was to serve the balance that made the top half possible. I was determine to be free thinking and somewhat raw --in my intelligence. But the practice of being discipline was a healthy preparation for first the academic rigor of college and later the world of politics, that allows for very few mistakes. Notre Dame is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. But it is worth its value in tuition. And should you be lucky to be accepted it is a tremendous opportunity to create in you a foundation that will bring great things."
