On Saturday, December 18, Gissell Perez and Daniela Garcia, Class of 2019, became Milwaukee's first Cristo Rey Jesuit HIgh School alumni to graduate and earn a bachelor's degree from college. Both Gissell and Daniela graduated from Alverno College in three and a half years and are the first in their families to become college grads. They returned to CRJ to be recognized and celebrated by the entire student body during the weekly assembly. Both alumnae received a standing ovation, as they shared advice and encouraged current Trailblazers to follow in the footsteps of the founding class. Congratulations to Daniela and Gissell!
An Update From Adrian Ramirez '23
With YOU, I can.
I am excited to share that I have been accepted to Marquette University, where I can study engineering along with my brother Bryan. I am now one step closer to making my father’s dream and mine a reality. My father always said, “Don’t tell people what you’re working towards. Instead, show them the final product.” I am looking forward to continuing to grow after graduation as I continue to work towards my final product - a college degree and a bright future. Thanks to the generosity of CRJ partners, my family is proof of the generational change taking place at Cristo Rey Jesuit High School.
Your support ensures students can build a bright future.
Make a gift today so Trailblazing students can develop their talents, pursue their dreams, and prepare for lives of purpose in their families, careers, and communities.
