Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit High School is a college preparatory school located in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Opened in 2014, it is in the Cristo Rey Network of schools, with work-study integrated into its program. It serves only low-income students[2] and financial need is a first criterion for admission.[3][better source needed]
History
Cristo Rey Atlanta opened in 2014 under the auspices of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) in midtown Atlanta, in a three-story building that formerly served as the chancery building for the Archdiocese of Atlanta.
As the demand for its services expanded, the school accepted the donation of a much larger, seven-story building in downtown Atlanta.[2]
