OUR CURRICULUM
Our curriculum is designed to prepare students for success in college. The faculty works closely with each student to develop a skill set that focuses on creativity, curiosity, critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and collaboration. The ultimate goal of a Cristo Rey New York education is that all of our students will graduate from both high school and college. During their four years in high school they will gain a deep understanding of both themselves and the world around them.
By the time of their graduation, our students will have an understanding of and an ongoing commitment to these six core values of our school community: to be men and women who are open to growth, religious, intellectually curious, loving, committed to justice and work-experienced.
