College and Career Night

Every year, Cristo Rey’s Advisory Committee hosts College and Career Night for our junior class. We had a great turnout this year with over 30 volunteers joining us at school to share their insights with the Class of 2021. Our volunteers came from a variety of industries and backgrounds, from business to the arts and everything in between. We were even joined by some CRNYHS alumni who came back to share their experiences with fellow Lions. Students split up into groups and rotated through panels of volunteers focusing on different topics relating to college and career. Each panel was given questions centered around either choosing a college, picking a major, or navigating the transition from college to career. The juniors left the event feeling less overwhelmed and more excited for what’s to come in the college process!

Access to Success

On Monday, October 28, Cristo Rey New York High School celebrated its sixth annual Access to Success Dinner. Our 225 guests gathered at the University Club and generously helped us raise significant scholarship money to allow our students access to success. The recipient of this year's Celebrating our Success Award was Voya Financial, a company that has been a Corporate Work Study Partner to Cristo Rey since 2011, employing two to three CRNYHS students every year. Additionally, Fairfield University was presented with the Ensuring our Future Award. Xavier (CRNYHS ‘16, Fairfield ‘20), the master of ceremonies, lit up the room looking back on his days at both CRNYHS and Fairfield University.
