About us:
The Sisters of Notre Dame from the Kentucky and California provinces started
a mission in Uganda, East Africa, in 1995. They began St. Julie Model Primary
Boarding School for students in grades 3–7. The students come primarily from
the Kibaale ("the forgotten") district. Secondary education was begun
in February 2003 and is held at Notre Dame Senior Secondary School. Sisters from Chardon, Ohio, and Mülhausen, Germany,
have also served as missionaries, while other sisters and lay volunteers from
the United States and Germany come to help
for varying
lengths of time. In 2002, the first Ugandan women were accepted as candidates
for the Sisters of Notre Dame They professed first vows in October 2006.
