was in kindergarten; he is now a junior at the University of Central
Florida. My other son James is in the 6th grade at MHR.
I love working at Most Holy Redeemer School! This school provides so many
opportunities for children and is filled with such devotion from faculty and
staff. I meet frequently with other counselors from local high schools and
their comments to me about MHR have been "you can always tell a Most Holy
Redeemer student, they are so prepared." I am proud to be part of the MHR
family.
