Welcome Christy...We have been participants with the Bright Futures Fund/facilitator of the MOScholars program for several years and encourage other in our parish, St. John Francis Regis, and the St. Regis Academy. I have asked parents and grandparents of the Student Scholars at the Academy, even those who not Catholic but have students in the Academy to participate in the MO Tax advantage program.
