"Our students have a full day of tasks to complete and without their assistance we would not be able to accomplish projects in a timely manner. We greatly miss them when they have school breaks, as that is when we find out how much we really rely on them to complete their work on a weekly basis. The investment of time initially to train the students and help them understand their expectations in the work place has been so rewarding." - Tricia Everhart, MJ Insurance

Freshman Anita Brown works at Ivy Tech

"Our student workers are part of our team. The tasks these students perform parallel those of our professional billing staff; attention to detail, the quality and the speed in which they complete time sensitive data entry and claim control is surprising considering this is their initial introduction into the workforce. Their all-in work ethic has allowed staff to address more immediate department goals." -Carla Armstrong Northwest Radiology

All of these celebrations would not be possible without your dedication to our school.
As part of our year-end celebrations, we  recognized our valued Corporate Work Study Partner supervisors at an appreciation luncheon hosted by Marian Inc. This weekend, we will host our annual raffle, live and silent auction "The Big Top: Welcome to the Circus," to support scholarships for all our students. The event is underwritten by Dauby, O'Connor & Zaleski.
We also want to express our appreciation to Marian University for hosting our prom and May 26 graduation.
Thank you for your faith and commitment to our students' success.
Sincerely,
The Faculty, Staff and Students of Providence Cristo Rey.
