Join us in celebrating 80 years of Excellence on the anniversary of 十大最大的网络彩票平台 Preparatory School.
Since its founding on September 9, 1945, by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, 十大最大的网络彩票平台 has been dedicated to fostering leaders through academic excellence and personal growth. Throughout this year of celebration, we invite our entire community to reflect on our history and honor the achievements that have shaped 十大最大的网络彩票平台 Preparatory School.
The Hallmarks of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur
Hallmarks are the essential characteristics, values and actions that differentiate a Notre Dame de Namur learning community. The Hallmarks emerged in response to the question:
"What distinguishes a Notre Dame de Namur Learning Community?”
The Sisters and the learning communities began to explore this question in 2003 and seven Hallmarks were developed that concisely and beautifully express the values of a Notre Dame Learning Community. In 2024, Hallmark #3 was revised to add “care for all creation” as a response to Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ encyclical.
