The school's highest honor, the St. Julie Billiart Christian Leadership Award, is given to a graduating Senior on the basis of her involvement in parish and community, her leadership in school religious activities, her attitude of concern for the welfare of others, and her commitment to the values of Jesus as demonstrated in the way she lives.  Two Saint Julie Billiart Christian Leadership Awards are presented each year; one to a graduating senior and the other to an alumna. The award is presented at the Award Assembly in late May at Mount Notre Dame High School.

Graduating Senior Award
The Saint Julie Billiart Christian Leadership Award honors one graduating senior. It is the highest tribute that we confer on one of our graduates. The award is given to someone who promotes and participates in her parish life, who contributes to the spiritual growth of the school community through her involvement in service oriented and religious activities and whose personal integrity reflects the values of Jesus Christ. A committee of MND staff members selects the honoree from anong candidates nominated by class members.

Alumna Award
The Saint Julie Billiart Christian Leadership Award recognizes a graduate of Mount Notre Dame who dedicates herself to leadership, commitment, and service  in her civic and/or parish communities. Nominations are accepted until April 21, 2008.  If you have any questions contact Director of Advancement Sparkle Worley.
