Hands-on learning! School spirit! Sisterhood!

While on our campus for this event eighth graders will: 

• Become the student in a STEM, humanities and art class at Notre Dame.
• Experience a school spirit rally hosted by the sophomore class for the eighth graders - the Class of 2027 (purple and yellow Ravens) will become the 'big sister class' to the incoming Class of 2029.
• Witness how fun memories, sisterhood and leadership are part of the Notre Dame experience!

Why attend Eighth Grade Day?

• “I remember visiting on Eighth Grade Day and going to the rally at the end of the day. It made me so excited to apply for Notre Dame after seeing everyone coming together and supporting each other. The cheerleader performances and games were definitely a highlight for me.”  Nicole '26
• “One of my favorite memories was during Eighth Grade Day, where everybody was super welcoming, and I made a bunch of friends by simply just sharing one common interest – ND – which really made me feel like I was home.”  Sia '26
