Dear Friends,
As the Interim President & CEO of Cristo Rey Richmond High School and Corporate Work Study Program, I welcome you to our website! We are a unique school for diverse students who have limited financial means. We combine a college preparatory curriculum with professional work experience, a model that empowers our students with the necessary skills to grow into young men and women of faith, purpose, and service, ready for success in college and beyond!
I invite you to take a virtual tour of Cristo Rey Richmond through this website. View our videos and learn about our wonderful educational approach and what it means to be a scholar at Cristo Rey Richmond. Get to know our corporate partners who hire our student-workers. Please view the impressive, newly expanded facility that is home to our Cristo Rey family. Learn the many ways you can contribute and support our young students who believe in themselves, are hardworking and focused on changing their destiny and transforming Richmond.
To meet our students and hear their dreams is inspiring. To live and journey with them is to see God’s Spirit in their hearts. We must believe in our young people if they are to believe in themselves. I hope you will visit our school, meet our staff and students, and experience “The School that Works!” Please contact us to schedule a visit. We would love to see you!
You can be part of this new and exciting mission as a student, employee, corporate partner, volunteer, or donor. We welcome you! It is truly a blessing and a privilege for all of us to be part of Cristo Rey Richmond High School and Corporate Work Study Program.
Thank you! God bless you! ¡Viva Cristo Rey!
Christopher Michael Carney, Interim President & CEO
