NDP House System

10 Houses - One Community of Saints

The House System at Notre Dame Prep sets us apart from most high schools in the Valley. Our student body is divided into 10 Houses—these Houses build community, mentorship and opportunities for growth and leadership. But mostly, they provide a place where each student, faculty and staff member has a place to belong.

The goal is to find and foster the brilliance in each student and to give each soul on campus a place where they are embraced by their fellow House members while building a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and a desire to live in true discipleship.

Being a member of a House gives our students time throughout the day for real interpersonal interaction with students from all grades and members of our faculty and staff. The House System allows students to be recognized for more than GPA or athletic achievement, but for their human kindness.

Our Houses are named for the great Saints throughout the ages. And with the name, each House represents a key virtue of their Saint – fortitude, selflessness, sacrifice, integrity, strength, tenacity, humility, charity, courage, and loyalty.

The Houses compete for House points through academics, Christian service, school spirit, and enthusiastic competitions, while demonstrating Reverence, Respect and Responsibility toward each other. These efforts lead to the coveted House of the Year Award!
