The school has an excellent community, great academics, and is a neighborhood fixture. I have had six children attend. And it is a bargain compared to our comparable schools in Ohio and Texas. I attended MOQ and send my kids there. Of my five siblings, four have advanced degrees and all scored 29+ on the ACT. MOQ lays the foundation for an incredible faith-filled life and is an exceptional starting point for children. It is also a great community for parents.
