Notre Dame School of Milwaukee is an independent Catholic elementary and middle school. Operating on two campuses, the school has begun an expansion plan that will grow enrollment from 560 to 860 over seven years. Known for its English/Spanish dual-language program, NDM employs an extended day/year/life model that includes after-school programming, summer school and graduate support. The school believes these wraparound services encourage students to develop their gifts and passions while at NDM and in the years that follow. All teachers have been trained in trauma-informed educational practices, and students receive regular social-emotional support from school counselors and ongoing pastoral care. NDM operates two middle schools, one for boys and another for girls, while the lower grades are coed.
