Meet our Students

One of the salient characteristics of a Jesuit school is the "Graduate at Graduation" statement that sets forth goals and characteristics that a graduate of a Jesuit High School should attain by graduation.  There are five characteristics shared amongst all Jesuit High Schools: Religious, Intellectually Competent, Open to Growth, Loving and Committed to Justice. Christ the King has one additional trait -- Seasoned, Responsible Worker to reflect the unique nature of the school.

Portrait of a CtK Student: Kyara is... Intellectually Competent

What does the Intellectually Competent quality of the Grad-at-Grad mean to you?

[It means] competing with yourself to do your best; pushing yourself to succeed.

What is your favorite subject?

Math.  It challenges you.  I like things that challenge me to use my brain.

What has been your favorite experience since you've been at CtK?

The work (Community Investment Corporation.)  When I heard about the school through my Mom's friend, I never would have imagined that I would go to a school and work to pay a percent of my tuition.  My cousins don't go to a school like this.  I feel really blessed. 

Dream for the future:

I want to be a lawyer.  I've had that dream for three years.  Lawyers interest me and I like debating about things. I think that's something that will make me happy in the future.

How have you changed since coming to CTK?

I think I've changed in a religious way.  I've learned the importance of doing the right thing for God.  God knows his plan for us.  I feel like CtK has changed me in a good way.
