ABOUT THE CRISTO REY NETWORK The Cristo Rey Network® is the only network of high schools in the country that integrate four years of rigorous college preparatory academics with four years of professional work experience through the Corporate Work Study Program. Comprised of 41 Catholic, career focused, college preparatory schools, the Cristo Rey Network delivers a powerful and innovative approach to education that equips students from families of limited economic means with the knowledge, character, and skills to achieve their aspirations. The impact is clear: Cristo Rey graduates enroll in and graduate from college at twice the rate of their low-income peers.
MISSION & PHILOSOPHY Cristo Rey Jesuit High School provides access to a Catholic, Jesuit, college and career preparatory education to unlock the potential of students of any culture, faith, or creed to transform our communities. We provide an innovative college and career preparatory curriculum focusing on the development of the habits of mind and spirit.
OUR SCHOOL - 17:1 STUDENT TEACHER RATIO We provide a quality, Catholic, college-preparatory high school education. The Cristo Rey Jesuit curriculum is centered around the core subjects of English, Math, Science, Social Studies, and Theology, with a wide range of advanced courses and electives available in STEM pursuits, Music and Visual Arts, Social Sciences, and Foreign Languages. In addition, we foster our students' identity as a Jesuit school by promoting the following Jesuit values: Cura Personalis (c are for the whole self), Service to Others, Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam (for the greater glory of God), Finding God in all Things, Contemplatives in Action and Living the Magis (the “more”).

CLASS OF 2026 DATA
POST SECONDARY ENROLLMENT OPTIONS (PSEO) CREDIT Students participating in PSEO earn high school and college credit through enrollment in a college-level course taught at a postsecondary institution (PSI) by college faculty. Students may only register for one PSEO course each semester. Students give up their office hour period to take the PSEO course. • Students who pass a PSEO course with a C or higher will earn high school elective credit of 0.5 (half credit) towards graduation. Students may only receive up to 1 elective high school credit each year, regardless of the total number of PSEO courses taken. Students must take PSEO courses for a letter grade. Elective credit earned that is communicated to the registrar through PSEO will be recorded in the student’s transcript.
100% of seniors accepted to one or more colleges. 94% of students committed to a 2 or 4-year college. $3.3 million - Total amount of scholarship dollars award for their first year to their selected college. $10.8 million offered in scholarships. $3,564 is the average out-of-pocket cost per year for selected universities (network goal is $5,500 or less). Accepted to 162 different colleges & universities including DePaul University, Marquette University, Notre Dame University, Villanova University, and Washington and Lee University.
• PSEO classes cannot replace a CRJHS core class (English, Science, Math, Religion, Social Studies). • PSEO classes may not conflict with the student's core high school schedule, including the CWSP internship. As CRJHS is not an open campus, students may not leave the building during the school day.
