Notre Dame traces it roots to St. Joseph Academy, an all-girls school founded in 1866. St. Mary's opened in 1914 as a boys' preparatory school. In 1928, both schools consolidated. St. Mary's became a grade school in 1955 and Notre Dame High School opened its doors that same year.[1]
Notre Dame currently offers over 10 Advanced Placement courses. It has a 100% graduation rate with 98% pursuing higher education. Dr. Carroll Kelly Morrison has been the principal for twelve years. Mrs. Darlene O'Dell is the longest tenured teacher at Notre Dame, having taught there since 1996. [2]
Former West Virginia University star Jarrod West is the current high school boy's basketball coach. They compete in the Single A division of West Virginia High School athletics.
