Don Bosco Cristo Rey will be a leader in achievement as it creatively develops transformative leaders who will succeed in college and contribute to the arrival of the Kingdom of God.
The newest high school in the Archdiocese of Washington, Don Bosco Cristo Rey High School was designed for students in the greater Washington area who dream of going to college but have very limited financial resources. In the tradition of the Salesians of Don Bosco, an order of priests and brothers who have been educating youth since 1859, DBCR emphasizes the importance of Faith, Family, Future, and Fun in education.
