GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A historic donation is boosting Notre Dame Academy’s educational resources.
The Norbertine Order made two gifts to Notre Dame Academy, totaling $11 million.

The money will strengthen academic programs and provide additional resources to support the success and wellbeing of all students.
“This extraordinary generosity is an expression of faith in the future of Notre Dame Academy,” said Abbot Dane J. Radecki, O. Praem. “From the earliest days, we have believed in the power of Catholic education to form young people of character, compassion, and service. These gifts reaffirm our enduring partnership with Notre Dame Academy and our shared mission to serve God and neighbor through education.”
The capital campaign gift of $1 million will support priorities including:
- Completing the Tuition Assistance Endowment
- Renovating classrooms and science labs
- Naming two theology classrooms: Abbot Pennings Classroom Our Lady of Premontre Classroom
- Naming one science lab: St. Joseph Science Lab
“This historic gift, combined with the support of our campaign donors, strengthens our community and advances our mission,” said Amy M.
