The Catholic Diocese of Trenton also neighbors the school. The main building itself is square in shape, housing classrooms on two floors. Its mascot is the "Irish", usually displayed on athletic wear as a shamrock affixed to ND. The current president is Barry Breen, accompanied by principal Mary Elizabeth Ivins, vice presidents Donna Grabowski and Kevin Callahan, assistant principals Joan D. Pilkington and Joanna Barlow, Chaplain Reverend J.C. Garrett and Director of Athletics Richard Roche. The high school uses a form of block scheduling for its students. In a typical semester, a student will have three 80-minute block classes and two 40-minute blocks. One of the 40-minute periods is usually reserved for a lunch period while the other is reserved for physical education or an additional 40-minute class. There is an "activity period" between the four 80-minute blocks during the day in which students can study, take an additional lunch period or participate in various school activities (groups, clubs, community service). The school features a theatre, gymnasium, cafeteria, several standard classrooms, offices, computer and science labs, school store (The Leprechaun Shop), a renovated track, wrestling room, cross country path, weight-room, turf field with stands, tennis courts, various outdoor playing fields, media center–library, chapel, campus ministry, guidance department, and courtyard. A creek adjacent to the school's student parking lot was the location of a Revolutionary War skirmish between American rebels and the British military which slowed their march on Trenton. A small commemorative sign marks the spot where the battle occurred. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Notre Dame High School (New Jersey)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
