History
Anne de Xainctonge accompanied by her angel entering the gate of the City of Dole, France, 1596.
Founded in 1912, Notre Dame School continues to educate girls in the tradition of Anne de Xainctonge. Anne began her mission of education in 1606, in Dole, France. Her desire, that girls receive an excellent education in the humanities, arts and sciences and Christian spirituality, remains vibrant today. As you turn the pages of our 2016–2017 school calendar, may you capture the joy that makes Notre Dame School Chez Nous.
“No matter how my day is going, I know my friends will be there to make me laugh and smile.�
