Cristo Rey Columbus High School

Cristo Rey Columbus High School is a Catholic, college-preparatory high school with a Professional Work Study Program empowering young men and women of all faiths, from economically challenged families, to graduate from college and achieve a lifetime of success. Cristo Rey Columbus targets under-served youth in central Ohio. What makes Cristo Rey unique is the Professional Work Study Program that helps fund the students' education. With this innovative educational model, each student works five days per month. School fees are paid by employers for student work, and this comprises the majority of the school budget.
