Nardin Academy


Founded in 1857 by the Daughters of the Heart of Mary, Nardin Academy has grown to be one of the premier educational opportunities in Buffalo, NY.  Through the years, over 75,000 students have benefited from Miss Ernestine Nardin’s vision of a quality Catholic education.  Nardin Academy is firmly rooted in a tradition of excellence, but we also understand the importance of change.  We have evolved and adapted numerous times to ensure that our students receive the best education possible. 

In honor of our 150th anniversary, we are changing again!  We have evaluated our presence on the web and decided to give ourselves a makeover.  Nardin Academy has launched a new website in order to be more efficient, technologically advanced, environmentally conscious, fiscally responsible…and to make your life easier!

It’s more than just having a new look.  The new website is easier to navigate, includes more information and is extremely convenient.  For the first time, we are putting our President’s Report only online.  In addition to saving trees, this move will save valuable money that can be better spe
nt on our students.
