Excellence in Education with the Power of Faith

Holy Redeemer School in College Park, Maryland, was opened September 1, 1931, by the Sisters of Providence. We are a Catholic community committed to providing quality education within a Christian environment. The school offers an educational program for pre-Kindergarten through Eighth Grade that is designed to respect the dignity of all students, recognize individual differences, and promote social justice and other Gospel values as integral elements of Christian living. Holy Redeemer School promotes structure and discipline as an aspect of moral guidance while providing opportunities to worship, to learn, and to grow in character.

We affirm the role of parents as primary educators. Holy Redeemer School strives to support parents by encouraging and motivating their children to realize their potential for academic excellence, creativity, self-discipline, spirituality, physical fitness, and social awareness.

We owe much of our success to our faculty whose dedication and commitment to excellence is key to the success of our students. We are proud to announce that the Archdiocese of Washington named our own 8th grade teacher, Ms. Jennifer Eller, the 2008-2009 Catholic Elementary School Teacher of the Year. Ms. Eller was chosen from more than 1,600 Catholic school teachers.

Your phone calls today could save school choice for D.C. kids! We need our parents in Maryland to call their senators – the opposition is really working to denigrate Catholic schools.
