2016 Annual Report

Our 2015 – 2016 Annual Report is dedicated to

Everett Liborio Retiring Director of Maintenance at Cristo Rey Boston

We are so appreciative of your quiet, generous, steadfast dedication over the past 12 years. You’ve supported the school with your hard work and love, and through every transition, you’ve embraced the mission with the purest spirit of giving. You are a model to us of what it looks like to give selflessly and humbly. You are a model to our students of integrity and caring. The world is a better place because you are in it, and Cristo Rey Boston is a better, stronger, more beautiful school because of the work that you did every day. You have meant so much to us, and you have contributed richly to the work of the school, and for that we are enormously grateful.

Message from the President and Board Chair At its best, a Catholic, faith-based education is transformational, and that’s the challenge we strive to meet each and every day – in the classroom, in the community and in the workplace. Our workstudy program not only gives our students invaluable workplace experience in a professional setting, but also invests them in their education in a tangible way, as their work helps defray the cost of their education. By connecting their school work to “real world” work settings, our students develop skills that will serve them well for the rest of their lives.

President Michael Brennan (left) and Board Chair Thomas O’Neill

Inherent in our mission is aspiration. We aspire to inspire the faith life of our students. We aspire to open their hearts and minds to the beauty of God’s creation and recognizing His presence in everyone they know and in all they do. We aspire to form young men and women of faith, service and purpose. If we fail to instill these qualities in our students, their education here merely becomes a resume builder and vehicle for self-centered acquisitions. In a Catholic setting, it is imperative that we see beyond ourselves and serve those most in need.

We aspire to provide a rigorous, college preparatory program of studies combined with diverse and meaningful co-curricular opportunities that support our goal of placement in four-year colleges for all of our graduates. Annually, every graduating senior is accepted to a four-year college. These college acceptances are often the first for the family and are among the proudest moments for all when those acceptance letters arrive. Educating adolescents is messy, exhausting work, but the energy and aspirations of the young men and women who walk our hallways provide all the motivation our dedicated faculty needs. You can just feel it when you step foot in our building. So thank you for your continued support of Cristo Rey Boston. The lives of our students are transformed by the commitment of our benefactors and corporate partners, and for that we are blessed and deeply grateful. With gratitude,

Michael J. Brennan

LEADERSHIP Michael J. Brennan

A

mong other academic degrees, new Cristo Rey Boston president Mike Brennan has a certificate from the “Leadership for Change” program at Boston College. It’s not a bad motto for the school itself. The leadership shown by Brennan and his staff will ideally go a long way in determining a change for the better in the lives of hundreds of students who come through these doors. For his part, Brennan’s appointment to his new post after years as an administrator at Boston College High School amounts to a calling. “I need to be part of something bigger than I am. I couldn’t go into something that wasn’t socially redeeming in some way,” said Brennan. “I want to work with people, work toward a common goal. I’d rather talk about Cristo Rey than my role in it. I’d rather talk about us.” And on that theme, Brennan has a lot to say, starting with the Cristo Rey faculty, who subscribe to the school’s mission to educate young people to become “men and women of faith, purpose and service.” “At Cristo Rey Boston, we subscribe to Jesus’ call to be servant leaders. Our leadership is in service to others.

well the challenges — and the potential — of this age group.

The recently sainted Mother Teresa captures this ideal for us in her words ‘Give of your hands to serve and your hearts to love.’ Our teachers understand the mission. They do not give up on kids. This is not ‘educational Darwinism.’ We need to keep our kids here and not give up on them, because this is their chance. Most of our kids have suffered various levels of trauma in their lives. Cristo Rey is a place to heal, a place of first, second and third chances…we always have to be a ‘chance’ for them.” Teaching (mostly English) and coaching (mostly hockey) — that was Brennan’s life at several Catholic schools for the first 13 years of his career before becoming the admissions director at BC High in 2003. Being around teenagers all his professional life, Brennan knows

“Working with adolescents is hard work…even well-resourced kids have a difficult time navigating these years. They are still developing physically and mentally, and trying to figure out ‘who am I?’ They will push boundaries — and push us to our limits — to find their safety zone. We have to help them understand their gifts and who they can be.” And that’s where Cristo Rey’s faculty and staff come in, not only to educate, but also to catch students when they fall. “These are the people who believe in social justice, were educated around it and live their lives to promote it,” explained Brennan of the Cristo Rey adult community. “Our faculty and staff make this school successful. Everybody has a role and an understanding of our mission. Our students are under-resourced and this poses many additional challenges to their identity formation during their teenage years. This work touches people’s souls — it’s God’s work. We want them to be other -centered, even as we help them gain ground socially. That’s our mission.” That’s leadership.

“The test of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.” — James Buchanan CRISTO REY HIGH SCHOOL 2016 Annual Report 3

VISION Joe Stuart

I

f you know Joe Stuart, you are not surprised to hear how he came to Cristo Rey: he volunteered. “I thought I could help out the basketball team,” said Joe, who was still at Boston College at the time. Two years later, the 25-year-old Virginia native is the athletic director of the school, with one guiding principle: if the students show an interest in a sport, a club, a project — he wants to make it happen. And football was at the top of the list. “It really goes back to wanting to give our kids the full high school experience,” said Stuart, who helped form a co-op team with Cathedral High School. “We really had the interest; kids wanted it. That’s how we came to have a robotics club and a cooking club at school. Nothing is going to work at Cristo Rey if the kids don’t want it. So part of our job here is to support them in exploring their interests, including finding their talents in the work-study program and valuing the importance of education so they understand these things are building blocks for success in college, and a way to move beyond their current situation.”

That pledge of support led Joe to take on another job for a time: cheerleading coach!

There is football coach and cheerleading coach, and then there is “life” coach, the most important job of all. Coming out of Boston College, Joe’s vision of his own immediate future was a law degree, but something about Cristo Rey brought him back after that first volunteering stint, and now he finds himself immersed in the life of the school as teacher, mentor and role model to his students. It starts with his football players, who are learning about more than winning as they line up alongside Cathedral kids every day at practice. “It’s a work in progress,” admits Stuart. But it extends to all.

“Last year we had a pom-pom squad — pom-pom and baton twirlers, dancers. The supervisor was a college counselor who got swamped with other work. So, Pablo Martinez (director of campus ministry/student life) and I turned into cheerleading coaches. We looked for someone to take over this fall,” he added with a grin. “Thankfully, we’ve got a parent who is interested.”

“Every teacher needs to be prepared to counsel,” says Joe. “And part of our responsibility is to give kids a vision of their own future. Work-study is a test drive for future employment at a company, but they don’t really have that perspective yet. Most will be the first in their families to graduate college, so there’s no model in the family for that. So trying to help the kids see their own vision of themselves five to ten years from now is the goal. For all our kids.“

“A vision is not just a picture of what could be; it is an appeal to our better selves, a call to become something more.” — Rosabeth Moss Kanter 4 CRISTO REY HIGH SCHOOL 2016 Annual Report

SERVICE Alexandra Tejada-Diaz

N

o one knows Cristo Rey better than someone who has walked its halls as a student.

But it’s in counseling that Alexandra is finding her passion. “I’ve had a lot of oneon-one time with students in my class and some others. I’m not sure if it’s my age, or the fact that I’ve been where they are, but students seem to relate to me.”

22 year-old Alexandra Tejeda-Diaz is one of a countless number of Cristo Rey graduates who have gone on to earn a college degree and successfully embark on a career path. What makes her different is that she came back, working in admissions this school year as one of seven AmeriCorps volunteers. “When I graduated from Boston College, I applied for a teaching job at Cristo Rey but didn’t have the experience I needed yet,” said Alexandra. “But the school has an association with AmeriCorps, and I was told I could teach a senior seminar as part of my responsibilities. This has given me the opportunity to see how I like teaching.” AmeriCorps, also known as the Notre Dame Mission Volunteer Program, is a federally-funded service program that is commonly referred to as the “domestic Peace Corps.” Members work in several areas at Cristo Rey; they live in a community house in Dorchester near the school and receive a small stipend for their services. It’s one of several ways volunteers support the mission of Cristo Rey. Alexandra’s main duties are in the admissions office, interviewing prospective students. As a student once

Alexandra’s spirit of volunteerism goes back to her college days, when she tutored kids at different schools throughout the city, and also staffed a crisis prevention hotline.

herself, she knows first-hand the kind of middle school student who would be a good fit with Cristo Rey’s rigorous academics and the challenges of a workstudy job. “We’re looking for students who have already shadowed for a day, who have some idea of what the expectations are, who have done well in middle school,” explained Alexandra. Many Cristo Rey parents or students are first generation, and again, Alexandra can speak from her own experience, with both of her parents born in the Dominican Republic and Spanish as her first language. “I believe in the Cristo Rey model. The key is finding the students who are committed to the mission of our school, and then providing the necessary support to make the school work for the kids who come here.”

“When I picked up the phone, I was dealing with people in emotional distress... It felt good, helping them calm down and counseling students one-on-one, being someone who could listen to their problems, even though they didn’t know who I was. I just want to help as many people as I can in as many ways as I can.” Ask Alexandra where her career takes her next and her answer speaks not only to her own sense of adventure, but also to the confidence gained as a student at Cristo Rey. “Hopefully I will work with an organization that does counseling. I might go to grad school. I could go anywhere,” said Alexandra. “I have so many interests — I might do anything!”

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” — Mahatma Gandhi CRISTO REY HIGH SCHOOL 2016 Annual Report 5

FAMILY Elizabeth Ortiz “

I

am not related to Big Papi,” says Cristo Rey front desk manager Elizabeth Ortiz with a laugh. “I get asked that all the time.”

and as a parent. Yuliza has followed her brother to Framingham State, pursuing a double major in education and psychology. (William graduated in four years.) Elizabeth credits Cristo Rey’s unique work-study program as a big reason her daughter succeeded at Cristo Rey and is now thriving in college.

No, the now-retired Red Sox slugger is not family, but for Elizabeth, Cristo Rey Boston is a very much a family affair, and not just because she is the proud parent of a Cristo Rey graduate (Yuliza) and a current freshman (Angelis) at the school. Her son William is a graduate of North Cambridge Catholic, which became Cristo Rey Boston in 2004. “I love it here — so much,” said Elizabeth, now beginning her fifth year in the main office. “The students are all a big family to me. When I talk about ‘my kids,’ I have to say my kids from school, not my own children, because they are all my children. They call me ‘mom,’ they call me ‘auntie.’ I love them. For some of these kids, it’s not easy at home, but here at school it’s a different world. They feel safe. They can talk to anyone in the building; they know we are here for them.” Born in Puerto Rico and living most of her life in Dorchester and the South End of Boston, Elizabeth knows from her own experience many of the challenges Cristo Rey students face.

“I love the corporate work-study world. As a parent, it was a little scary for me at the beginning, but the school keeps you informed, and once you learn the process, it’s great.” Yuliza worked at the New England Aquarium, and then for three years at athenahealth, where she still maintains contacts. “My time is different from their time,” says Elizabeth of today’s teens. “They have more issues than I had, so much pressure, so many things I see that they have to live with. I believe if they have someone to talk to, to reach out to, we can make it better for them. When I was growing up, I had a few teachers who were wonderful to me. They were there when I needed them. I feel I have to give it back to the kids.” Elizabeth has had the unique opportunity to experience Cristo Rey as both a member of the staff

Graduation last spring was an emotional event for Elizabeth, who joined the staff when the seniors were freshman. “It was nice to give them a hug and a kiss. We recounted all the freshmen stories...we laughed and cried. I’m proud of all our graduates — very, very proud. I feel they are prepared when they go to college. With our academics and the work-study program, they know how to do things. I tried to offer my daughter advice when she went on a job interview, but she kept saying ‘I know, I know what to do. I come from Cristo Rey!’”

“The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life.” — Richard Bach 6 CRISTO REY HIGH SCHOOL 2016 Annual Report

Corporate WorkStudy Program Through our innovative Corporate Work-Study Program, we are building a pipeline of diverse, 21st century talent and preparing our students for the demands of the growing, knowledge-based economy.

Annual Academic Signing Day Our annual Academic Signing Day gala is a celebration of our senior class of students and a fundraiser to support our mission. Modeled after the NCAA signing day, each year five of our academic all-stars publicly declare where they will attend college in the fall. In May, more than 200 people gathered at the Boston Harbor Hotel, one of our Corporate Work-Study partners, to celebrate all 76 graduating seniors and honor Father William P. Leahy, S.J., President of Boston College. Boston College was one of our first partners to believe in our students by committing to a full Corporate Work-Study team in 2004 and continuing to employ four students every year. Four of the five seniors chose the College of the Holy Cross as their college home, while the fifth senior selected Saint Anselm College.

CRISTO REY HIGH SCHOOL 2016 Annual Report 19

VOLUNTEERISM “We celebrate the selfless individuals around our country who channel their civic virtues through volunteerism… devoted to a cause bigger than themselves… they make extraordinary sacrifices to expand promise and possibility.” — President Barack Obama, April 8, 2016

AMERICORPS VOLUNTEERS Long in title and bountiful in what the program’s volunteers give back to our school, Notre Dame Mission Volunteers AmeriCorps is a federally-funded service program that believes education is the fundamental tool in the struggle of the poor for human dignity, self-esteem, and self- determination. Each year we are fortunate to have AmeriCorps volunteers in our school who provide academic assistance and support in and outside the classroom. In the 2015-16 school year, we were blessed with the talents and dedication of three AmeriCorps volunteers for 10 months.

CP MENTORS Our CP Mentors represent all ages, from recent college graduates and graduate students to the most seasoned

professionals and retirees. They all share the same desire to provide mentoring and support to our high school juniors and seniors with one-on-one support for college and scholarship applications, resume development and college visits, if needed. In addition, support and mentoring can continue into college as they make the many adjustments to their new place of learning. CP Mentors provide a bridge for academic and personal support since many of our students will be first generation college students who will no longer have the safety net of their high school teachers, counselors and staff.

IGNATIAN VOLUNTEERS Cristo Rey Boston High School is a proud placement for Ignatian Volunteers Corp (IVC). Participants in IVC are men and women, most age 50 or better, who serve others

and transform lives. IVC matches the talents of experienced volunteers with the greatest social needs of our time. By contributing their leadership skills and life experience, IVC volunteers improve our school’s community. Ignatian Volunteers typically give two days per week. In the 2015-16 school year, Cristo Rey Boston was fortunate to have three volunteers; two working as tutors and another serving in our alumni relations office.

LEADERSHIP ADVISORY COUNCIL Our Leadership Advisory Council (LAC) is comprised of dedicated young professionals who contribute to the mission of Cristo Rey Boston by helping plan and participate in fundraisers and “friend-raisers.” The group meets quarterly with a special focus on coordinating our annual Academic

Signing Day gala. Enthusiastic, young professionals are always welcome to join this group of committed volunteers.

ACADEMIC TUTORS In 2015-2016, we had 12 academic tutors who worked with our students in the areas of math and grammar proficiency. The majority of our students entered Cristo Rey Boston at least two grade levels behind in math and reading, and the additional one-on-one support helps remediate this critical basic skills gap. Our tutors learn about us in a variety of ways, including word of mouth, friendships with individuals already tutoring here, and outreach to area colleges. There is always room at the table for new and interested tutors willing to serve our population.
