Cristo Rey Seattle is Making Headlines!
The American Experiment has always rested on a simple but radical promise: that effort and talent, not privilege, should determine opportunity. Today that promise is in doubt. Rising tuition, heavy debt, and uneven outcomes have caused many to question whether higher education still delivers. For families who have sacrificed to send their children to college, the frustration is real. Too often, students earn the degree they were told would change their lives, only to find it does not translate into opportunity.
