SAN JUAN DIEGOCHS

EST. 2002

Dear Friends of SJDCHS,

In 2016 San Juan Diego Catholic High School (SJDCHS) celebrated fourteen years of providing outstanding Catholic, college-preparatory education.

On May 26, 2016, 38 graduates were awarded Distinguished Achievement diplomas. Collectively, our graduates were offered more than $1.3 million in academic scholarships. Sixty-five percent will be first generation college students. SJDCHS students continue to graduate high school, attend and complete college at rates which greatly exceed that of their peers.

The cornerstone of SJDCHS is the innovative Corporate Internship Program (CIP). Students work one day a week for one of more than 25 Austin companies, including Seton Healthcare, Dell, Inc. and St. Edward’s University. Our corporate partners are hiring SJDCHS students after they complete college because of their experience and confidence in a corporate environment.

Our biggest news is that construction for the new building begins this summer! Dollars raised for our “Transforming Lives: Building Opportunities” capital campaign climbed to $8.7 million of the $10.4 million Phase I goal. Our annual fundraising program continues to provide tuition assistance to all those who would not otherwise have access to this extraordinary high school program.

I would like to personally thank each and every person who has contributed to SJDCHS. You, together with the students, families, CIP sponsors, and the school’s dedicated teachers, make “Our School Work.” The Diocese of Austin, capital campaign committee and advisory boards have been instrumental in our success.

Your suppprt enables SJDCHS to fulfill its mission to prepare students for college and career success by accepting each motivated, hard-working student who comes through our doors. When the new school is complete, SJDCHS will offer this unique opportunity to more students and families in the years to come.

Sincerely,

Pamela S. JupePresident

San Juan Diego Catholic High School provides highly motivated students the opportunity to earn a Catholic, college-preparatory education enriched by participation in a corporate internship program.

Your donation to the Fund-A-Saint tuition assistance program makes a difference in the life of a student, helping them to receive a Catholic, college-preparatory education.

The Corporate Internship Program (CIP) provides students with professional experience and subsequent career possibilities while offering the opportunity to earn a portion of their educational costs. Every student is part of a team that shares a full-time position at one of our Austin corporate and non-profit business sponsors. Experience gained by participation in CIP has proven beneficial as SJDCHS students have been offered employment with our CIP business sponsors and with corporations nationally.
