"Mary, Queen of Heaven School fostered a Christian communiy that felt more like a family than a school. I received an excellent education from MQH, which formed the foundation I needed to succeed in high school and through law school. Even more importantly, the faculty and clergy at MQH provided the spiritual guidance I needed to develop as a young Catholic and to meet the challenges ahead. I cherish my years as a student at MQH and consider them to be a great blessing"
