What I Love About MD
Mater Dei High School excels in academics and sports and inspires students to reach their full potential. Understanding the value of a Catholic education from being in a Catholic Elementary School and Catholic College, Mr. Reynolds was drawn to pay it forward to the next generation for the experiences and values he gained from Catholic education. He is in his 24th year of teaching in the Diocese of Orange and loving the diverse teaching environment!
