Enhancing Education at Peoria Notre Dame High School: A New Vision for Academic Success

As we reflect on our history and embrace change, Peoria Notre Dame High School is committed to renewing our educational efforts. We recognize the need to move beyond traditional rigid structures and unengaged pedagogy to a more interactive and meaningful learning experience. Our approach will emphasize authentic assessment, project-based learning, and collaboration, while shifting from a "sage-on-stage" practice to engaging students in team-oriented responsibilities. Our updated curriculum will offer additional AP courses, a 1:1 technology program, and a focus on cultural competency to prepare students for an evolving world.
