LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ – Notre Dame High School is proud to announce the launch of a transformational $1.5 million capital campaign designed to redefine the future of education for its students. This initiative will fund the complete renovation of the school’s former library into a state-of-the-art Learning Commons, anchored by a cutting-edge Business Lab Powered by Bloomberg.
Scheduled to open in Fall 2026, the new Learning Commons will serve as a bridge between the classroom and the corporate world. The centerpiece of this renovation is the Business Lab, which will feature industry-standard Bloomberg terminals and software. This addition of the Bloomberg curriculum will make Notre Dame one of the only high schools in the area to provide students with direct access to Bloomberg Certifications, curriculum, and technology typically reserved for university-level finance programs, giving students a competitive edge.
Beyond the technology, the Learning Commons will feature collaborative workspaces, a student-run marketplace for budding entrepreneurs, and dedicated quiet zones for deep academic focus. The project also addresses essential infrastructure needs and expanded access to the digital library.
As a member of the Diocese of Trenton, rooted in the spirit of the Sisters of Mercy, this campaign reflects Notre Dame’s enduring commitment to innovation and the academic formation of young women and men. The school acknowledges the vital role of its alumni, families, and community partners in sustaining its mission to prepare students for lives of fulfillment and service.
President Jennings noted, "This innovation is only possible with your partnership. By investing in this space, you are doing more than renovating a building—you are securing a competitive edge for our students and leaving a lasting mark on Notre Dame."
