Discover Me, Each Child Asks

Each child brings to this world
a special person to be discovered,
a special potential to be realized,
a special talent to be shared.
No one else
can ever be this person,
achieve this potential,
or sing this song.
These unique gifts have been
entrusted
to each child of the universe
and will remain hidden
treasures
until we encourage their
discovery
and delight in their offerings.

As a child approaches school age, parents begin to carefully research an environment that offers an educational experience which fulfills the spiritual, academic, social and emotional needs of their children.   At Notre Dame of Bethlehem School, we believe that the children who enter our door each day receive the necessary tools needed to succeed in all these areas. 

Our school philosophy is based on guiding children to grow individually, obtain knowledge, acquire skills, and develop an attitude that will enable them to become true Christians.  A day in the life of Notre Dame engages children in all areas of development with a strong emphasis on the teachings of Jesus. We believe that the responsibility of a child’s education rests in the hands of both parents and educators.  This relationship should be based upon mutual respect and cooperation.   

God has entrusted us with the gift of children and in their smiles are expressions of His love.  We understand the magnitude of the decision parents make when choosing the proper educational environment for their children.  We welcome the opportunity to provide your children with a quality Catholic education based on academic excellence. 

We encourage you to take the time to explore the various opportunities at Notre Dame and thank you for your interest in our school.
