Shift to co-education
Notre Dame High School has been an all-boys school since 1946. On April 3, 2024, the school announced that it will shift to a co-education model and will begin enrolling girls in fall 2025.[2] Notre Dame cited creating a "sustainable enrollment" as central to its decision to move to co-ed. According to the school, it is the 19th of 22 schools founded in the Holy Cross tradition to become co-educational.
Known as the "Green Knights," Notre Dame High School's athletes boast a rich tradition of success with notable football, ice hockey, baseball, tennis, golf, basketball, swim, and track programs. The school also competes in wrestling, lacrosse, and most recently, crew. Notre Dame is a member of the Southern Connecticut Conference.[3] Its gymnasium is decorated with several league and state championship banners and the names of All-State athletes.
