Notre Dame Middle School

Notre Dame Middle School is a Catholic school for young women sponsored by the School Sisters of Notre Dame.
Following in the Christian tradition, Notre Dame fosters respect, responsibility and sharing of personal talents, and prepares students for admittance to a college preparatory high school.
In a bi-literate setting, with emphasis on leadership skills, critical thinking, and social justice young women are empowered to make positive contributions to society.
NDMS is located on the south side in the heart of Milwaukee's Hispanic community.
The majority of our middle school students come from a community bordered on the north and south by National and Greenfield Avenues; on the east by South 6th Street, and on the west by South 27th Street.
It is a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood with White, Black and Hmong minorities.
It has the demographics one would expect many immigrants, low-income levels, low education attainment levels…with many individuals and families not fully integrated into or comfortable with Anglo society.
