Respond as women of vision and risk, as women with a clear sense of purpose and mission.

Welcome

The School Sisters of Notre Dame (SSND) is an international community of women who have positively influenced the lives of millions since our 1833 founding by Mother Theresa of Jesus Gerhardinger in Bavaria, Germany. We have been in Wisconsin since 1850, when Mother Caroline Friess was put in charge of the North American Missions and established our motherhouse in Milwaukee.

Today, while many of us are teachers, we don't all work in the classroom. Our mission is to educate others in all we do while spreading Jesus' message of love and unity throughout the world. We are facilitators of change and personal transformation especially to those who are poor. We invite you to partner with us in our mission.
