- What attracts you to the Cristo Rey mission? Why do you feel you are a match for this unique opportunity to be a member of the founding faculty at Cristo Rey Orange County High School?
- Describe your philosophy of education and how you would put it into practice at Cristo Rey Orange County.
- Many high school students confront an urgent, double challenge: they struggle with reading comprehension, basic numeracy, and they have acquired less of the academic vocabulary and core knowledge—in science, history, civics, the arts, etc.—that are critical to their success. These two challenges are reciprocal; difficulty with reading comprehension limits students’ ability to gain new knowledge and vocabulary, and limited vocabulary and core knowledge hinder reading comprehension. As a teacher in a college-prep high school with students facing this reality, how would (or do) you address it?
