History |
| Notre Dame's history began in 1906
when the pastor of Our Lady of Sorrows parish saw the need for a Catholic elementary
school. Dolores School was first established at the corner of Anacapa and Figueroa streets
under the direction of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. After several moves the present
school was constructed. The building was damaged in the 1925 earthquake so Dolores School
sought other quarters and the repaired building was completed in 1926 and became Santa
Barbara Catholic High. When Bishop High School was established in 1959 Dolores School
moved back to the building. After merging with Guadalupe School in 1974 the school was
renamed as The Notre Dame School. The philosophy of providing a quality Catholic
education for all children lives on in the staff that serves the school today. |
