== History ==
Notre Dame Preparatory School (NDP) was founded on September 21, 1873 in Baltimore, Maryland on Charles Street by the School Sisters of Notre Dame, under the name Notre Dame of Maryland Collegiate Institute for Young Ladies. There were 63 pupils. The school was founded due to overcrowding at the SSND's first school in Baltimore, Institute of Notre Dame. Ulysses S. Grant, President of the United States, presided over the first commencement as his niece, Bessie Sharp, was a student at the school in 1876. Notre Dame's preparatory school existed 20 years before the college. In response to the high school graduates' requests in the early 1880s, the School Sisters of Notre Dame expanded Notre Dame of Maryland's curriculum with two years of post-secondary education. This led to the charter of the college on April 2, 1896. Although the school has always been for girls, in the early 1900s, boys were admitted. The sisters began to admit them, it is believed, at the urging of Cardinal James Gibbons for the convenience of some Baltimore families. In more than one school catalogue, the sisters assigned girls' names to the boys. In another, they penciled in "B" above each boy's name. By the late 1920s, however, the school was once again all-female.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.notredameprep.com/about_ndp/timeline.aspx )〕
In an attempt to distinguish the prep school from the College of Notre Dame of Maryland (now Notre Dame of Maryland University) and to meet the growing demand for classroom space, the school moved in 1960 to the current Hampton Lame campus in Towson, Maryland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.notredameprep.com/about_ndp/history.aspx )〕
In 2010, the school celebrated its 50th Anniversary on the Hampton Lane campus with a parade of students and a Mass led by Jesuit Father James McAndrews. Students, wearing the traditional uniform including the blue dress, blazer and saddle shoes, processed into the Mass carrying each class banner the school has hosted since its move to the Hampton Lane campus. Many of the school’s oldest traditions were mentioned in the celebrations including Gym Meet, one of the oldest annual traditions, begun in 1929.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.catholicreview.org/subpages/storyarchnew.aspx?action=8772 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.catholicreview.org/cath01/pdf/CSW_Events_10.pdf )〕
