The Next Chapter of Notre Dame's History
October 13th, 2025
The start of the new academic year is always exciting, and this year at Notre Dame, it was truly extraordinary! Our students were greeted by reporters and cameras as they arrived for the first day, transforming what's typically a private milestone into a celebrated moment worthy of sharing with the world.
In preparation for the first day, our new students enjoyed several days of orientation activities, which began with a family celebration the night before. On a beautiful summer night, we welcomed our new students and their families to campus for a great evening filled with games, pizza, lots of candy, and the beginnings of lifelong friendships.
During the first week of school, several media outlets from throughout Connecticut visited school, interviewing students, faculty, and administrators about the historic change.
