  • College Preparatory Coursework

    Cristo Rey students engage in coursework designed to prepare them for success in college. Core subjects – reading, writing, science, mathematics, social studies, theology, world languages, and the arts – provide the foundation for our college preparatory education.

    The Cristo Rey academic program also emphasizes thinking strategies, personal responsibility, and lifelong learning behaviors necessary for success in both the classroom and the workplace.

  • Corporate Work Study Program

    The Corporate Work Study Program combines two commonly-used business concepts, employee leasing and job sharing, to provide students the means of financing the majority of their education.

    Businesses contract with the Corporate Work Study Program to staff their full-time, entry level jobs with cost-effective, reliable students for an annual fee. The fee is a business expense, not a donation.

  • Student Life

    Part of a Cristo Rey education is "cura personalis". It's a Latin phrase that means "care for the person". In other words, Cristo Rey schools seek to create well-rounded young adults.

    Cristo Rey was created for its students and seeks to help students develop completely as human beings, and not just as scholars.

Cristo Rey high schools combine personal responsibility, academic rigor, and a corporate work-study program to empower children of the working poor to reach their full potential.

Mission

The Cristo Rey Network® empowers thousands of students from underserved lower-income communities to develop their minds and hearts to become lifelong contributors to society. By providing students an extraordinary college preparatory education and a unique four-year, integrated corporate work study experience, we seek to help transform urban America.

Vision

The Cristo Rey Network strives to become one of the finest educational networks in the country demonstrating measurable impact in the crucial national imperative of launching low-income youth to and through college and into lives of productivity, meaning and consequence.
