Under the leadership of Sr. Mary Vidhya, SND, Hartmann continues its commitment to an education grounded in faith, discipline and service.
For over six decades, Hartmann Girls' High School has stood as a beacon of academic rigor and character development. Guided by the vision of the Sisters of Notre Dame, we strive to give our students more than just textbook knowledge. We believe in providing an education that molds their conscience, builds strong moral character, and instills a spirit of compassionate service.
We encourage our girls to explore their curiosity, seek truth, and approach their studies with sincerity and discipline. Together, we work to make HGHS a nurturing space where every student can discover her talents and prepare to make meaningful contributions to the world.
