Notre Dame Cristo Rey High School (NDCR) provides a Catholic, college preparatory education to economically challenged youth in the greater Lawrence area. NDCR is sponsored by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur and is a member of the Cristo Rey Network, a national association of 32 private, Catholic high schools across the U.S.What makes Cristo Rey schools unique is their innovative Corporate Work Study Program (CWSP). The CWSP enables all students to earn the majority of their tuition by working in mid to entry-level positions in a variety of companies. All student workers complete a comprehensive Summer Training Institute in August, participating in over 40 workshops including Phone Skills, Filing and Scanning, Internet Safety, Excel, Word, Taking Initiative, Business Etiquette, Ethics, and Time Management. Students take great pride in their work and feel a true sense of accomplishment when they help their companies accomplish mission-critical work. The students hold a wide-range of positions including bank tellers, HR assistants, IT assistants, Marketing, Sales, Communications, Finance and more.Companies, or “Corporate Partners,” benefit by hiring a team of four students who share a full-time, entry-mid level, professional job. (There is flexibility in the program to accommodate every company’s size and employment needs). NDCR student workers are an innovative resource enabling organizations to increase their diversity and make an impact on the workforce of the future without adding to their roster of full-time employees. Many Corporate Partners value the energy that student workers bring to their companies.For more information about our CWSP program, please watch this short video and visit our website at www.ndcrhs.org As NDCR continues to grow, the CWSP seeks additional Corporate Partners for our students. Please share our mission with any companies you know will benefit from our program!
