Standardized Testing

The testing program includes:
National Testing Day (Wednesday, Mid October)*PSAT 8/9 and PSAT/NMSQT are practice tests for the SAT (collegeboard.com/psat). To view, all the AP exams go to apcentral.collegeboard.com.
Cristo Rey Network University Partners
The Cristo Rey Network partners with colleges and universities across the country. These partners have shown their dedication to graduates of Cristo Rey Network schools nationwide by offering various levels of support, ranging from admission consideration to scholarship aid to special oversight once students have matriculated. Some schools offer mentor programs and some host summer programs specifically for Cristo Rey students so that students can experience campus life as they are considering the best-fit college or university. Schools appreciate the values and skills built through a Cristo Rey education and find our graduates to be especially determined and resilient.
Peer & USF Tutors
Upon request or need, students may be paired with a peer tutor to receive help in a particular subject. Peer tutors are National Honor Society(NHS) members who have demonstrated academic strength in classes. They will pair up with a student at a scheduled meeting time. There is also peer tutoring drop-in hours during the week.
Tutors from the University of San Francisco (USF) partner with a group of sophomores and focus on geometry. The USF students meet once a week with our students.
