College-Prep Academics - All students take college preparatory coursework and are held to a high academic standard. Our teachers and student support staff are well-equipped to support students in achieving success in high school and prepare them for continued success in college.
Professional Work-Study Program - Our students work in a professional environment five days per month, all four years of high school. This unique program not only helps to fund students' education, it provides them with on-the-job work experience, mentoring, and the opportunity to gain invaluable professional skills.
Catholic Identity - At the heart of the Cristo Rey Columbus community is our faith in Jesus Christ and a commitment to nurture the faith of all students. This happens in an atmosphere of mutual respect and concern for all members of our school community – students, teachers, staff, and families.
Diverse Community - We are proud of our diverse student body that represents our global community. We embrace the many cultures and backgrounds of our students and their families, and by doing so, create an enriching, welcoming environment rooted in mutual respect.
An Education That Makes a Difference - Our school's mission is to serve students from low to moderate household incomes who would not typically be able to afford a private high school experience. By opening these doors, our students are given the tools they need to overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and set themselves up for a lifetime of success.
