Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School is a private, independent, Catholic high school in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for students of all faiths from low-income families.

The school has an innovative work-study model where each student works at a company in the Greater Philadelphia Area one day per week.

It opened in 2012, becoming the 25th school in the larger Cristo Rey Network.

The new building is approximately 100,000 square feet with state-of-the-art facilities, costing nearly $40 million.
