The Religion Department bears witness to the mystery of Jesus Christ in the minds and hearts of our students. With the dual focus of education and faith formation, courses offer a safe place for students to inquire and grow on their own journey and relationship with God, in the image of Mary our Mother. The curriculum advances Notre Dame’s mission of developing Christian people, upright citizens and academic scholars.

"The well of confidence and competence in the faith that Notre Dame Prep helped build up in me was one of the pillars I leaned on in a time when many people encouraged me to walk away from it." - Nick Pilchak NDP’00
