Welcome to the Notre Dame Regional High School A+ Program Google site, designed to be a comprehensive resource for students and families.
Notre Dame Regional High School voluntarily participates in the A+ Scholarship Program, administered by the Missouri Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development (MDHEWD). Funding is available for students who complete the program and attend one of the participating Missouri community colleges or vocational/technical schools. Also, some four-year Missouri colleges internally provide funds to those who complete the program. This opportunity is available to Notre Dame students as long as 1) Notre Dame Regional High School maintains the designation of an A+ School, and 2) funding is appropriated to the program by the state. A full listing of the requirements is available online at the link below. See the A+ Coordinator for more information.
Here you can access all information related to the A+ Program, including the required contracts to participate in the program, the student logs for recording hours, and much more.
Visit the Official DHE Website for a full program overview. Pay particulate attention to the section "How much can I receive?" for more specific reimbursement information and "How can I apply?" to ensure all additional requirements are met.
Notre Dame students can begin the program at the completion of sophomore year; please see the Contract and Overview for a full outline. All questions regarding the program should be addressed to the A+ Coordinator, Mrs. Amanda Mueth, Director of Curriculum.
