Exciting Moments from the Center

One of the most exciting moments for the teachers and staff of SSND Educational Center is when our graduates share their success stories with us. SSNDEC is a family affair. We are never happier than when we see our graduates and their families thriving!

On NDLC's 20th Anniversary

Notre Dame Learning Center was approved as a sponsored ministry of the School Sisters of Notre Dame and opened in March 2004, at the Charles Settlement House. Sister Lorraine Burns, joined by Sister Mary Lou Brien, and later Sister Mary Smith, began tutoring children in reading and mathematics. The Center grew, and by 2006, there were 55 children receiving tutoring services from 60 volunteer tutors.
