July/August Edition
Alumnae Hall & Dance Studio Renovations
As our newest initiative, we are embarking on a new and exciting chapter in the transformation of our Alumnae Hall and the
building of a new dance studio. Alumnae Hall will be a state of the art facility that will provide more efficiency and an inviting space
for all to gather.
The dance studio will be a new addition to Notre Dame Academy. The studio will allow us to showcase our visual and performing
arts students. Alumnae Hall will be named in memory of Patricia Jean Fitz. Ms. Fitz taught at Notre Dame Academy for over twenty
years. Her sense of humor, her smile, her love for language and literature, as well as her concern for each student endeared her to
those she taught.

A lead gift was received for construction that began in June 2016. Please join us as we move forward to complete this project for
the 2016-17 school year. We hope you consider supporting this wonderful project to honor the memory of Patricia Jean Fitz. This
project will impact the experiences of all NDA students, faculty, and visitors for many years to come.
The new space will be officially known as Patricia Fitz Commons or "Fitz Commons." The new space is near completion and is being
used minimally while work is completed.

Our website got a face lift....
Our marketing department has been working extremely hard all summer to create a newly designed website for Notre Dame
Academy! The website officially launched just in time for the opening faculty and staff meeting this past Tuesday. The marketing
department met with teachers, administrators, and staff to redesign the website accurately so that it assists our students, their
families, our alumnae, and the future of our school.

The new design offers a crisp and fresh new look as well as making it much easier to navigate. Anything you can think of has a
home on our new website. There are still some things that are going to be added over the new few weeks such as new pictures
and biographies for the faculty and staff! There is a space for everyone to find what they are looking for, updated pictures and
information, access to a separate athletics page, and so much more! One of our favorites is the Extracurriculars tab which offers
information about all of the different clubs, activities, and leadership groups that are offered at Notre Dame Academy.

Toledo, OH (July 18, 2016) – Notre Dame Academy President, Sister Mary Ann Culpert had the honor of being invited to
serve on a committee to do preparation work for the Sisters of Notre Dame (SND) 2016 General Chapter, which occurs every

of the 45 proposals will be considered at the General Chapter that will be held in Coesfeld, Germany this October.
Sister Mary Ann is one of 56 sisters from Korea, Indonesia, Brazil, Africa, Europe, and the U.S. to be selected for this honor. At
the General Chapter, delegates will elect a Superior General and five Councilors to lead the SND worldwide for the next six

Marie Fischer will also be delegates for the SND Toledo Province at the General Chapter. Provincial Superior for the Toledo
Province, Sister Mary Delores Gatliff will attend as an Ex-Officio member.
The Sisters of Notre Dame are an international congregation with the mother-house in Rome. SND are located on five
continents and are divided into geographic units called provinces, four of which are in the United States. Internationally, there
are about 2,000 sisters located in the United States, Brazil, Peru, Italy, The Netherlands, England, Germany, Papua New
Guinea, Nicaragua, Indonesia, South Korea, India, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, and the Philippines.
