Common questions

Why doesn't Notre Dame High School have a Scope Score?

Private schools don't take California's state tests (CAASPP), so there is no state testing data for Notre Dame High School to score. SchoolScope gives private schools no Scope Score, performance band, or rank.

Where do Notre Dame High School's directory facts come from?

The enrollment, grade-span, and student–teacher figures shown here, when present, come from the NCES Private School Universe Survey 2021-22. That survey-period record is not a current enrollment or inspection report.

Notre Dame High School had own-school AP authorizations for 17 of the 40 subjects in the College Board's 2025–26 AP program: 2-D Art and Design, 3-D Art and Design, Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Computer Science Principles, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, French Language and Culture, Human Geography, Physics 1, Psychology, Spanish Literature and Culture, Statistics, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History.
