San Juan Deigo Catholic High School

MORE THAN A TYPICAL HIGH SCHOOL
Founded in 2002, SJDCHS's commitment to education encompasses more than rigorous classroom instruction for students in the 9th-12th grades, it involves the development of the spiritual, academic and personal growth of each student. The dedicated faculty, staff and administration at SJDCHS are able to provide individual attention to the current 150 students with a 12:1 student teacher ratio. Located in South Austin, SJDCHS's student body represents 35 zip codes from around the Austin area and includes 53% female students and 47% male students. In addition to a full academic curriculum, students at SJDCHS participate in faith formation activities, community service, athletics, extra-curricular activities, and a four-year corporate internship program.
OUR CORPORATE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
Our unique Corporate Internship Program referred to as CIP, provides students with professional experience and subsequent career possibilities while offering the opportunity to earn part of the tuition for their college preparatory education. The CIP program is unlike any other program in Central Texas and plays an integral role in providing students with a competitive advantage when applying for college acceptance and scholarships. On average $235,000 was awarded in merit scholarships per student to the 32 graduates in the Class of 2020.
