San Miguel Catholic High
School, Tucson, Starts
Its Second Year in a Brand-New
Facility
Under the blue Arizona sky
the new campus and buildings
of San Miguel Catholic High
School head toward completion
in time for the opening of
classes this fall in late
August 2005. The newest high
school sponsored by the Christian
Brothers District of San
Francisco, San Miguel High
first opened its doors in
temporary facilities in 2004
to welcome its inaugural
class of ninth-graders .In
the 2005-2006 academic year,
it will have 55 sophomores
and about 55 freshmen.
San Miguel is the second
of two new high schools based
on the corporate internship
model and sponsored by the
Christian Brothers District
of San Francisco. A coeducational,
college preparatory secondary
school, it has been established
for students from economically
disadvantaged families of
Southern Tucson. San Miguel
strives to advance each student's
human and religious education
while generating a respect
and appreciation of the student's
Hispanic and Native American
heritages. Through the school's
academic curriculum and unique
Corporate Internship/Work
Study Program, San Miguel
maximizes the potential of
its graduates to take their
place as contributing members
and leaders in the civic,
religious, business and cultural
life of our community and
nation. San Miguel High is
a member of the growing national
network of corporate internship
schools on the model pioneered
by Cristo Rey Jesuit High
School in Chicago.
