Providence Cristo Rey High School Announces President Search
Providence Cristo Rey High School, a Roman Catholic, coeducational secondary school located in Indianapolis, Indiana, is currently accepting applications for the position of president.
The school is located west of downtown Indianapolis at 75 N. Belleview Place. Providence Cristo Rey High School is sponsored by Sisters of Providence of SAINT-MARY-OF-THE-WOODS and is a member of the Cristo Rey Network, a national association of high schools providing rigorous college-preparatory education to urban young people with economic need.
The school utilizes a longer school day and year, academic assistance, and counseling to prepare students with a broad rang
e of academic abilities for college. All students participate in a work-study program that substantially underwrites the cost of tuition, provides practical employment experience, and channels their formal education into immediate workplace application.
Significant additional funding is achieved through the Indiana private school voucher and school scholarship tax credit programs. Providence Cristo Rey celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2017 and to date 100% of our graduates have been accepted to college.
Reporting directly to the Board of Directors, the President will be a dynamic leader committed to the mission of Catholic education and the Cristo Rey model. The President will be expected to demonstrate a record of executive and fiscal management, along with the achievement of strategic and operational goals.
The ideal candidate is a practicing Catholic and leader who can effectively articulate the school’s mission to its various constituencies.
Preference will be given to candidates with a mission orientation that incorporates Catholic education and Cristo Rey ideals with a strategic vision for the development of all aspects of the school and students—mission, academics, work-study, finance, operations, admissions, and advancement.
Expected start date is November 1, 2017 or earlier. A competitive salary and benefits package is offered. A full job description is available at www.cristoreyindy.org/employment.
