Cristo Rey San José is a Jesuit, Catholic high school that empowers students from underserved communities in San José to be people for others who are prepared spiritually, academically, and professionally to complete college, and who will become accomplished leaders committed to a lifelong pursuit of learning, faith, and justice.
What Makes Us Different:
The Cristo Rey Work Study Program: Every Cristo Rey student works one day each week in professional, administrative roles at partner organizations. In turn, the revenue they generate funds up to 50% of their tuition! Students receive professional training at school and are prepared to contribute at their workplace on day one. Current partners include Cisco, CBRE, Kaiser Permanente, NVIDIA, Bristol Myers Squibb, Morrison Foerster, and 90+ more.
Cutting Edge Learning: Cristo Rey San Jose's academic model uses cutting-edge technology to adapt to individual student needs. Each student is given a Chromebook computer to aid instruction and use online portals for their classes.
Who We Serve: We are a high school in Silicon Valley whose enrollment is limited to students from families with a unique commitment to serving students exclusively from underserved backgrounds, ensuring access to quality education. We are committed to students from our community to work, learn, lead, and succeed!
