Chattanooga's Oldest and
Most Experienced Private High School
Born of its vision and defined by its Catholic character since 1876, and the oldest private high school in the Chattanooga area, we know how to develop high school students into motivated, prepared and compassionate young adult men and women. By blending academic excellence with Christian discipleship and extracurricular activities, each high school student has the opportunity to reach his or her personal best. As a top-rated, private, co-educational high school, we cultivate each student’s strengths and Christian faith, while nurturing their self-confidence and respect for religious, academic, cultural, and economic diversity, so each student is prepared to make a positive difference in the world. Students enjoy the personal attention necessary to thrive. Our historic mission has changed the lives of thousands of students for over 145 years. Join us!

Tennessee Education Savings Accounts
Notre Dame is proud to be a vendor of the Tennessee Education Savings Account Program (ESA). Different than our Tuition Assistance Program, the ESA allows eligible families the opportunity to apply for scholarships for educational expenses including tuition. Once accepted, families will be able to receive the designated scholarship amount so long as their eligibility does not change.
This is a third party program that is offered through the state, not the school. Interested families need to apply through the resources listed below. Our dedicated team is here to help accepted families through the finalization process.
