BELOW ARE UPDATES ON OUR WORK.

We are honored to announce our new leadership team! After completing extended terms on the leadership team, Srs. Margaret Hickey, Joy Connealy, and Rita Ostry are moving on. We are thrilled to announce that Sr. Rita Ostry will be our new Provincial President, as of August. She is joined by Srs. Mary Kay Meagher and Mary Ann Zimmer to lead the NDS Omaha Province. Sr. Margaret Hickey will also be retiring in July, after she passes the baton to Sr. Rita. Margaret Hickey served as the Notre Dame Sisters Provincial President for an impressive three times -- 1977-1983, 1998-2005, and currently from 2013-22. Last June, Sister Mary Ann Zimmer, PhD, retired from teaching at Marywood University in Scranton, PA where she had taught for 14 years. Sr. Mary Kay Meagher served as a nurse practitioner for more than 40 years, serving mostly immigrant and low income peoples. She continues social justice work in Omaha, throughout Nebraska, and specifically with refugees and immigrants.

Join us for the NDA Alumnae reunion and get your sweatshirt! Enjoy a reunion at Notre Dame Housing (previously Notre Dame Academy) Saturday, September 10. We will offer Mass at 3PM, class photos at 4 PM, and at 4:15 PM, tours of the building with refreshments and light appetizers. We will specifically celebrate the classes of 1972 (50th anniversary!), 1967, 1962, 1957, 1952, and 1947. To celebrate Notre Dame Academy Alumnae, we are offering sweatshirts to the graduates.
