Student Life

The joy at NDA is real.

And it comes from the genuine connections among students, faculty, and families.

Built on traditions, relationships, and celebrations

Across both our coed and all girls divisions, every student is known, supported, and encouraged to lead with integrity. Nicolette G., Class of '27

Collaboration & belonging

At NDA, you will find...

Faith, Service, and Purpose

Our school is driven by a shared mission: to educate young people to lead lives that make a difference. Rooted in Catholic values and Catholic Social Teaching, we welcome families of all faiths into a community defined by integrity and service. Through age appropriate retreats and service learning programs, students are invited to look beyond themselves and contribute meaningfully to the greater Los Angeles community. These experiences are intentional. Each one is designed to help students discover who they are, what they believe, and how they can lead with purpose.

Visual & Performing Arts

At Notre Dame Academy, the arts inspire creativity, confidence, and meaningful self-expression. Through visual arts, music, theater, dance, and digital media, students are encouraged to explore their talents, take creative risks, and discover their unique voices. Our vibrant arts programs foster collaboration, imagination, and a lifelong appreciation for the beauty and power of artistic expression.

All-Girls Cocurriculars, Clubs & Activities

At Notre Dame Academy, students are encouraged to explore their passions, discover new interests, and build meaningful connections beyond the classroom. Through a wide range of clubs, co-curriculars, and activities, our All Girls Middle School (6–8) and All Girls High School (9–12) students develop leadership skills, collaborate with peers, serve others, and embrace opportunities to grow as confident, engaged members of the NDA community.

Coed Enrichment

Coed Enrichment extends learning beyond the core curriculum, giving students opportunities to discover new interests, develop emerging talents, and explore real-world applications of their learning. Through a diverse selection of electives/specials, students cultivate creativity, collaboration, and confidence while developing the skills and passions.
