Both sons graduated from Cardinal Mooney. CM prepared them to succeed in college by offering rigorous AP and Honors courses, an outstanding Speech and Debate program, the opportunity to participate in myriad service and academic organizations and theater. Both children earned fabulous scholarships as a result. Love CM.
