LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!

We are a Community of Saints and that is why we love to host events that bring us together to share in the special bond we have as members of the NDP family.

Culinary Festival

Favorite restaurants from all over the Valley bring their culinary delights to this fabulous dining extravaganza under the stars on the NDP campus. This 21+ event is casual, and features great food, drinks, a silent auction and much more! We were voted The Best Culinary Event in the Valley by AZ Foothills Magazine! Visit ndpsaints.org/culinaryfest.

Grandparents Mass

Grandparents have always been a part of the Notre Dame Prep story. Many are Saints fans and school supporters. Each year, on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, we host an event to celebrate the grandparent/grandchild connection. This year it will be a special Mass set for Nov. 21. Registration will open in October.

Parent Gatherings

Throughout the year we host networking events, Mothers' Guild luncheons, and parent socials. We will send special emails when these events arise.

Homecoming Game

All the SAINTS; past and present will fill Bemis Field to watch our homecoming game and see who is crowned Homecoming Royalty this year! The game is set for Friday, Sept. 15.

The partnership between NDP faculty, staff, alumni, and parents is vital to the growth and success of our students and institution. We invite parents and alumni to volunteer, join our parent and alumni associations, and actively take part in the mission and vision of our school.

Safe Environment Training

The first step to becoming a volunteer is taking the Safe Environment Training (SET) through the Diocese of Phoenix. All parent and/or alumni volunteers MUST attend one SET introductory class or annually renew their SET training through the Diocese of Phoenix to be cleared to work on campus. Classes and renewals must be taken after July 1, 2023. To get started, visit phoenix.cmgconnect.org.

VOLUNTEER CHECK-IN

For the safety of our campus, all volunteers and visitors MUST sign in and sign out at the front desk. There are no exceptions.

Fundraising And Outreach Event Volunteers

The Advancement Office uses parent and alumni volunteers for our annual fundraising and community-building events including our Culinary Festival, Golf Tournament, Alumni Hall of Fame, and Auction Fashion Show. Please contact Heather Weurding at hweurding@ndpsaints.org if you would like to get involved.

Parent And Alumni Associations

Mothers’ Guild, Advisory School Board and The Alumni Association serve as vehicles for parents and alumni to engage in the life of the school and bolster the NDP experience. Involved parents and alumni share in fun and lasting friendships while building a cohesive community. Through these organizations, parents and alumni can volunteer, socialize, pray, and grow the NDP family. For more information visit ndpsaints.org/myndp/parents or ndpsaints.org/alumni.
