Meeting Sponsor for Sept. 17, 2012 - Lorcan Barnes - Christian Brothers High School

Established in 1876, Christian Brothers High School is Sacramento’s longest-thriving high school.  The coeducational campus provides students with a highly-touted Catholic, college preparatory education in the Lasallian tradition.  Typically, 98 percent of CB’s graduates immediately enroll in college with recent alumni currently attending Harvard, Penn, Brown, Princeton, Stanford, West Point, Notre Dame, Cal, St. Mary’s College and other campuses across the country.  While many schools boast exclusivity, CB is proudly “inclusive” and mindfully welcomes students of varying academic abilities and economic realities.  The school has the most aggressive tuition assistance program in the region and some of the area’s highest college acceptance rates.  CB’s ethnic/racial demographics reflect the rich diversity of Sacramento County and the school launched an International Student Program this year welcoming 13 students from China, Italy, Sweden and Colombia.   Strong co-curricular programs in the arts, athletics and Christian service enhance the high school experience for CB’s students.
