​P.O.N.D.
POND is an acronym for Parents of Notre Dame. It was originally created to be a communication conduit between parents and the school, but has blossomed into much more. Attending a POND meeting is a good way to learn about what is going on at Notre Dame and how you can help to enhance your family’s experience! Parents are welcomed and encouraged to attend monthly meetings. Some exciting points about POND:
  • Provides scholarships for Notre Dame students
  • Provides a link between parents of ND students and the school
  • Provides refreshments for various ND functions i.e. Parents as Students Night, Family Mass, Celebration of Gifts and Talent
  • Oversees the operation of the ND Bookstore
  • ​Supports our staff through teacher appreciation activities
  • Provides information to parents through occasional programs (i.e. in the past we have had a safe homes presentation in the fall and a spring – prom safety/drug and alcohol update through GCASA)
  • Shares information with parents through the school newsletter
  • Credits family volunteer hours for each activity i.e. POND meeting attendance, school cleaning day, fundraisers, etc.
  • Fosters a “family environment” at Notre Dame High School
