Consuelo, Rene and Juan Cardenas have been blessed to have the opportunity to attend St. John Vianney Catholic School in Goodyear, AZ. My name is Monseraht Cardenas mother of 5 who moved from Oxnard, CA. As a little girl I always question my parents why I couldn’t attend a Catholic School. Their answer was always “it’s to expensive, we don’t have that kind of money”. I grew up thinking private schools were only for the rich kids. Not until my family was blessed to have our nice Liliana Sanchez attend St. John Vianney last year. We were guided of all the resources available. What impact did Catholic schools have on you and your family? My kids wake up wanting to go to school. I have tears on my eyes seeing them grow in faith. St. John Vianney Catholic School is changing my kids and my family life. Why was the opportunity to attend Catholic School important to you? Growing in faith is very important for our family. Going to school that teaches that is more than a blessing that what you’re trying to teach at home your kids are being nurture with on a daily day. Your accomplishments: My kids are growing in faith. Your future plans: As a mother I would like to be involved in letting the world to know that there is hope for a better education.
