My Sweet Charity reports that 130 students at Cristo Rey Dallas College Prep have received work assignments.
The event is known as Draft Day for Cristo Rey’s incoming freshman and sophomores. Students at Pleasant Grove-based Cristo Rey Dallas—part of a nationwide, 32-member network of Catholic college-prep schools—earn nearly two-thirds of their college-prep high-school tuition by working one day a week at Dallas’ top companies and organizations.
The Corporate Work Study Program provides students with hands-on work experience in a real-world setting.
