Diocesan Perspectives

 

In the fall of 2008, the Superintendent of Catholic Schools wrote to parents and guardians about the strategic planning process for the Diocese.  This initiative remains ongoing, and we strongly encourage our families to click on the communication at left to learn about this initiative.

 

The Diocese also oversees all of its schools' volunteer vetting requirements under its Protection of Children program. The applicable information and links to the Diocese are contained in MHR's own Volunteer Information page, a link to which is also in our home page Quick Links-Special Situations box.

 

Finally, from time to time, the Diocese has also releases school reports. When such reports are published, we will provide links in this space.

The School Improvement Process . . .

 

The School Improvement Process (SIP) is the most formal and important institutional self-evaluation and improvement program at Most Holy Redeemer Inter-Parochial School. The entire staff as well as interested parents participate. It is a comprehensive, extensively documented program that, among many other functions, produces the school’s biannual report for accreditation. It derives it strategic vision from, and provides direct support to, the mission of the school. It is guided by the school’s statements of belief.

 

We encourage all our parents and guardians to read a detailed update on the most current iteration of the SIP.

Looking Onward

Every year, many MHR graduates choose one of the excellent Catholic high schools in the Tampa area for their 9th through 12th grade years.  The links to those schools are available at right.
