Through our rigorous college preparatory curriculum, integrated with a relevant work study experience, students graduate ready to succeed in college and in life.

Impact Summary from the Nonprofit A Charting Impact Report consists of an organization�s responses to the five questions. Helping validate this self-reported data are three reviews. Once an organization has used the online interface to complete its report, its responses will produce a document with a unique URL that will be shared on this website, on your GuideStar profile, on the reports of charities participating in BBB Wise Giving Alliance evaluations, and � in the future � with other websites and information sources about nonprofits. We encourage organizations to use this URL to share their report on their own website and through their own media channels. Participants will receive guidance about promoting their Charting Impact Report, along with other benefits, once they publish their report. CRSM serves 332 low-income students during this 2013-2014 school year. It is the only private, affordable, academically rigorous college preparatory option to either Waukegan or North Chicago public high schools, neither of which meet federal education standards. Our 2013 graduating class had a 100% college acceptance rate; of these acceptances, 92% were to four-year schools.  The average CRSM family has 4.4 members and its per capita income is $8,205; our median family income is $36,102. More than 80% of our students fall below the national poverty guidelines to qualify for free or reduced lunch. Today, of the small number of Latinos and African-American students who will actually enroll in college, only a mere 10% will graduate. We work to change that percentage in Waukegan and North Chicago so that our graduates will serve as inspiration and guides for others in their communities. CRSM is in a growth mode and is scheduled to reach an enrollment of 400 by 2016. For more in-depth information about this organization's impact, view their Charting Impact Report .
