The Junior Book Awards honor students who stand out from their peers as leaders within the classroom, their community, and through clubs and activities. Many of these awards are sponsored by colleges and include books that hold a special meaning to the college or may be authored by an alum.

Please join us in congratulating our Juniors for this amazing honor!

They've done it again! 100% college acceptance into four-year colleges and universities AND they have been awarded over $13.5 million in scholarships over four years from the institutions where they applied!

Jhanny Jimenez, 16, is a junior at Notre Dame Cristo Rey (NDCR) High School in Methuen, Massachusetts. The Cristo Rey network serves low-income, predominantly underrepresented communities by establishing work-study partnerships with local companies. Since the school year began, Jimenez spends part of the week at school and the remainder at home, learning remotely. On Fridays, he works on a network visualization and optimization project with his mentor, MITRE Chief Scientist for Cyber Operations Les Servi.

We are extremely grateful to everyone who helped us move to our new home at 203 Lawrence Street in Methuen (the previous campus of the Presentation of Mary Academy). Your generous financial contributions, sacrifice of time and sharing of resources made this all possible!

Founded by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, and a member of the Cristo Rey Network, NDCR is a school driven by what is fair and just. Each day, we are reminded of, demonstrate, and stand by the Hallmarks by which we were founded.

Lawrence, MA/Methuen, MA – The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur (SNDdeN) and the Sisters of Presentation of Mary announced today that formal proceedings have begun for the SNDdeN sponsored Notre Dame Cristo Rey High School (NDCR) to purchase Presentation of Mary Academy’s (PMA) school buildings in Methuen. The school section of the former Searles Estate consists of five buildings, approximately 5+acres of a 24+ acre property which the Sisters are selling.

The Notre Dame Cristo Rey High School community mourns the passing of our great friend and mentor, Peg Downing. Peg was a woman of deep commitment, love and support for our students, our faculty and our staff.  Serving as principal in 2013/2014, Peg left a lasting impression on all who met her - we already miss her energy, enthusiasm and that amazing smile.  We know that Peg will continue to be our loudest cheerleader from her new home.

Congratulations to over a dozen students who have already been accepted to college!
