 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.
 The
SIP Seven Goals for Student Learning presentation,
originally given at the November 21, 2011 Coffeehouse, is now
available for download in Powerpoint
(4.5 MB) or
.pdf
(2.5 MB).
We
also encourage all our parents and guardians to read
a detailed update on the most current iteration of the SIP. |

Our
Supporting Parishes
These
five parishes, including host Most Holy Redeemer, support
our school, coordinate spiritual and religious education
activities, and rotate the leadership role of school
pastor. Collectively, they represent the
"Inter-Parochial" in our name. Admissions are by
no means limited to these parishes, however, and we
welcome many children from a variety of other religious
communities--including other St. Pete Diocese parishes,
the US Military Archdiocese, and other faiths, to name a
few. The links below take you directly to our supporting
parish home pages. |
