A GREAT START TO 2024

As we mark the midpoint of our second school year at Cristo Rey Miami High School, the energy on campus is palpable. You can feel it both within the classrooms and echoing across our construction site. Check out the video above for a recap of our Groundbreaking Celebration from November of last year.

Our Capital Campaign, "Built for the Future", has successfully launched its public phase and construction on the building is well underway, with a projected completion date of early 2025. On the academic side, more than half of our 10th grade class made the A/B honor roll for the first semester, and we are actively enrolling our third class (Class of 2028) to begin in August 2024.

These milestones are only possible because of your unwavering support. Your generosity is the cornerstone for all the noteworthy news and updates you'll read about below. Thank you for choosing to invest in the bright futures of our school and students.

UPCOMING EVENTS

We are thrilled to announce that we will host the Second Annual Cristo Rey Miami Golf Tournament on Friday, April 12, 2024, at Trump National Doral Golf Club.

Last year, more than 160 golfers and over 20 generous corporate sponsors came together for a fun-filled day of

golf, all while raising an impressive $150,000 in support of Cristo Rey Miami High School. It was a truly beautiful day that showcased the power of community and philanthropy.

CONSTRUCTION UPDATE

Earlier this month, Sister Maria Jose Socias (Campus Minister & Theology Faculty Member) and Amelie Ferro (Interim School President) placed Miraculous Medals in the foundation of the new academic building. Staff and students had an opportunity to write their favorite Bible passages on notecards that were placed alongside the Medals.
