I guess that "Search term not found." should be printed after you'd have searched through all the collection of notes, so you should place it after the while like this : 

while(index < notes.size() && !found) {
            String note = notes.get(index);
            if(note.contains(searchString)) {
                found = true;
               System.out.println(note);
              }
            else {
                
                index++;
                
            }
 }

if (!found) {
  System.out.println("Search term not found.");
}

I have a problem printing the search term not found.  I originally placed it just before the index ++ but that did not get the desired result.
Here is the code I have written..
 _/**
     * Search method
     */
    public void search(String searchString)
    {
        int index = 0;
        boolean found = false;
        while(index < notes.size() && !found) {
            String note = notes.get(index);
            if(note.contains(searchString)) {
                found = true;
               System.out.println(note);
              }
            else {
                
                index++;
                
            }
            System.out.println("Search term not found.");
        }
        
    }
