Notre Dame Academy (Georgia)

Notre Dame Academy is a Pre-K through 12 Catholic school in Duluth, Georgia. It is operated independently from the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Atlanta.

It was established in 2005. Previously it was a PK–8 school. The groundbreaking for the high school building, on a 21-acre (8.5 ha) plot, occurred in 2014. High school classes began in fall 2015.

As of 2019 the school had 460 students, with about two thirds being Catholic and about 50 total receiving special attention due to having learning disabilities.
