ABOUT CRJS

The Cristo Rey Network of high schools delivers a career-focused, college-preparatory education in the Catholic tradition for students with limited economic resources, uniquely integrating rigorous academic curricula with four years of professional work experience and support to and through college. We partner with educators, businesses, and communities to enable students to fulfill their aspirations for a lifetime of success.

CRJS is a part of the largest network of high schools in the United States exclusively serving students of limited economic resources, and a proud member of the Jesuit Schools Network. CRJS is committed to building and sustaining an inclusive and equitable work environment. We believe diversity benefits and enriches the development of all, and we value the cultural diversity of our team.

If you are passionate about creating opportunities for students who would otherwise not have access to a high-quality college-preparatory Jesuit education – combined with professional work experience – and you are eager to use your skills and experience to create a faculty, student body, and school culture from the ground up, then this is the job for you. CRJS will welcome our third class of 9th grade students in the fall of 20256 and will add an additional grade level each year until we reach full enrollment.
