Welcome.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Notre Dame College Prep. As you review the pages of this book, we hope you will come away with an appreciation for the unique place it is. When the governance of the school changed in 2007, the board and staff could have followed many paths in re-creating the institution founded more than a half-century earlier by the Holy Cross priests from Notre Dame, Indiana. They chose to re-dedicate the school to the patronage of Mary, Our Lady, and to follow her example of devotion to the formation and nurturing of young men. We have chosen to be an inclusive school, one that challenges and supports students with a wide range of academic achievement and abilities. We believe our Catholic faith demands nothing less. Each student is appreciated as an individual and his program is designed to help him reach his potential and exceed his expectations. We are proud that, regardless of their standing when they enter Notre Dame College Prep, our graduates leave well prepared for the rigors of higher education and, more importantly, for the moral challenges they will face in the years ahead. We celebrate and honor the families that entrust their sons to us. It is a matter of particular pride when students tell us Notre Dame has become a second home for them. We will work in partnership with you to help your sons become strong young men with a keen sense of their worth and their place in a global society. During my more than 50 years as a priest, I have worked to secure a safe, loving place for the children in my care. Today, I am proud to join the Board, faculty, and staff in inviting your family to become part of the Notre Dame tradition and to help write the future of this outstanding school. In Notre Dame,

President Father John P. Smyth A Chicago native, Father Smyth is a graduate of the University of Notre Dame and the University of St. Mary of the Lake/Mundelein Seminary. After being named an All-American in basketball at the University of Notre Dame, Fr. Smyth was drafted by the St. Louis Hawks in the 1957 NBA Draft. Father instead chose to enter the seminary and upon graduation was assigned to head Maryville, a home for children that became a leading provider of services to youth, a position he held for more than 40 years. The Executive Board of Notre Dame College Prep appointed Father Smyth the schools first president under its new governance structure on March 1, 2007.

Be Faithful.
As part of our commitment to forming men of faith and service, students attend monthly Mass, study the Catholic faith in the classroom, experience the sacraments of Eucharist and Reconciliation, make an annual retreat, and serve the local community. Our four-year retreat program is designed to help our students develop a mature faith that can augment a solid academic foundation with a real desire to deepen ones relationship with God. During Kairos, the culminating four-day faith experience for our senior Dons, young men discover how God is present and working in their lives, especially among family, friends, and others with whom they interact on a daily basis. They learn the importance of sharing their gifts with others and becoming leaders in their faith.

The Dons say a traditional pre-game prayer at the ND Grotto

We are The Dons of Notre Dame! Taken from the Spanish word for gentleman, a Don of Notre Dame is a Gentleman of Mary. He is committed to faith, to scholarship, and to service. He is committed to personal excellence, to integrity, and to justice.

Be Yourself.

With 19 faiths, 160 elementary schools and 42 communities


History
On September 1, 1954, Notre Dame College Prep was born. Samuel Cardinal Stritch, the Catholic Archbishop of Chicago, and priests from the Congregation of Holy Cross from South Bend, Indiana, broke ground in Niles, Illinois.

Mission
Under the patronage of Mary, Notre Dame College Prep is a secondary school committed to educating young men to be gentlemen of faith, scholarship, and service in an inclusive, family-oriented community. Faithful to the Roman Catholic tradition and inspired by Gospel values, we prepare students to be lifelong learners and to lead lives of integrity.

Ownership
Ownership of Notre Dame College Prep now rests in an independent Board comprised of Notre Dame alumni, parents, educators and Catholic leaders from the larger community of the Archdiocese of Chicago.

represented in our student body, everyone belongs at Notre Dame.


Life Prep
Notre Dame partners with each student and his family to provide a challenging college preparatory academic program. Our goal is to prepare each Notre Dame man for academic success in college. We are equally committed to preparing each student in his spiritual life, in his moral life, and in his behavioral life.

Personal Growth
Each student is assigned a counselor who will work with him throughout his Notre Dame experience. Counselors support students by assisting them in managing a variety of development issues that arise during adolescence. Students enhance their self-understanding and learn effective problemsolving skills. We provide the following services: Academic Planning/Support, Personal/Social Support and Career Advising and College Counseling.

College Planning
The College and Career Center works with Notre Dame seniors on their transition to college. Counselors conduct senior and junior Insight Nights, NCAA Eligibility Center Presentations, and Financial Aid Nights for students and parents. Counselors also coordinate Notre Dame campus visits for a wide variety of college representatives and athletic coaches, process college and scholarship applications and write college recommendation letters.

Be Innovative.

Notre Dame has launched an innovative iPad program for students in 2013-2014.

Tradition meets technology with our new iPad program


In the tradition of the Congregation of Holy Cross who sponsored the school for more than 50 years, a Notre Dame College Prep education promotes the development of the whole person. As the Congregations founder, Blessed Basil Moreau, C.S.C. stated, The mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart. We believe such an experience is critical, as society has a great need for people who lead lives of intellectual curiosity, strong moral character, and social responsibility. We further believe the quality of an education depends in large part on the quality of the people engaged in this purpose. Consequently, Notre Dame educators are people of faith who motivate, inspire, and lead our students toward academic excellence while fostering critical thinking, creativity, and leadership. Notre Dame College Prep will implement the use of the Apple iPad for students in the Classes of 2015, 2016, and 2017 and teachers at the beginning of the 2013-2014 academic year. In preparation, all teachers have undergone extensive training and professional development in preparation for including the iPad in their classrooms. The iPads will provide opportunities for our students to be more productive digital citizens as they enter a global environment that assumes technology skills and requires creativity and collaboration. The iPad is easy to use and provides a wide-range of apps to allow students robust visual, audio and sensory learning opportunities and will allow for the expansion of innovative ideas.

Be Successful.

Be Determined.

Our instructional program has distinct levels of challenge: Hesburgh Scholars Program, College Prep Core Program, St. Andre Scholars Program, and Burke Scholars Program.
Each level is geared to prepare our students for college admission. Rigorous courses of study are designed to meet the educational needs of our diverse student body and are tailored to provide challenging educational experiences for our students.

Hesburgh Scholars Program


Named in honor of legendary University of Notre Dame President Rev. Theodore Hesburgh, C.S.C., this four-year program is designed to challenge the most gifted and motivated student with a demanding course of studies. It not only requires the development of the students abilities in all areas of the academic curriculum, but also seeks to further his overall development through involvement in various service-oriented and extracurricular activities. Successful completion of the Hesburgh Scholar Program results in a special diploma of distinction.

College Prep Core Program


Students in the Notre Dame College Prep Core program are challenged with a curriculum designed to meet criteria for any state college/ university. These students might also take some honor courses and are pushed to meet high academic expectations. Graduates from the College Prep Core program have gone on to numerous selective colleges and universities.

St. Andre Scholars Program


Named in honor of Saint Andre Bessette, C.S.C., this college preparatory program is for students requiring assistance in achieving academic success at Notre Dame. St. Andre Scholars must exhibit consistent effort and a willing commitment of time and energy to academic excellence. This transitional program helps at-risk students adjust to the first two years of high school and deal more effectively with the work and expectations of their final two years at Notre Dame, while preparing for the rigors of college. The program provides one-on-one tutoring and small group instruction.

Burke Scholars Program


Notre Dame offers a curriculum for students with mild to severe cognitive disabilities including those with Down Syndrome, Fragile X Syndrome, or other learning differences. Notre Dame is the first Catholic school in the state and one of the first in the country to offer such a program. The Burke Scholars Program is named in honor of Illinois Supreme Court Justice Anne Burke and her husband, Chicago Alderman Edward Burke.

Notre Dame students volunteered more than 20,000 hours of service in 2012-2013.
As Gentlemen of Mary, Notre Dame students are called to be men of Faith, Scholarship, and Service. Each student is required to participate in the Notre Dame Christian Service Program during each of his four years of high school. All students must complete a minimum of 25 hours of volunteer service per year, but many go well beyond this requirement. Students can provide service at Notre Dame in a variety of ways. Students can serve as Ambassadors and volunteer at athletic and community events. Students can volunteer at specific events organized by the Christian Service Office or they may provide service to their parish, elementary school, or local community by coaching, tutoring, or participating in neighborhood clean-ups, etc. Each Notre Dame student will volunteer a minimum of 90 service hours during his four years in high school. In 2012-2013, Notre Dame students took part in two Summer Immersion trips to Harlan, KY where they built new homes for local residents.
