Being a Cristo Rey St. Martin Student Ambassador is both a huge honor and responsibility for our students. After going through a rigorous application process, those who are selected to be Student Ambassadors are required to help out with at least three events or school functions per semester, and represent CRSM for prospective donors, students, and business partners. Currently, there are around 40 Student Ambassadors at CRSM, all of which are either Sophomores, Juniors, or Seniors.
If you attend any of our events such as the Elevate Festival or Founders’ Dinner, our Student Ambassadors are often greeting guests at the door, making attendees feel welcome, and promoting CRSM and the mission by giving tours of the school. The ambassadors also help out at a number of prospective student events, such as family night and admissions interviews. They are easy to spot in their blue CRSM polos, and again have the duties of overseeing the guests and making sure they answer questions about CRSM for attendees. These are just some of the functions that the Student Ambassadors are responsible for helping out at, there are many others as well such as Business Partner Appreciation, Volunteer Appreciation, Off-Campus Galas, and so much more!
Emily AB, CRSM ‘24, is the President of the Student Ambassadors organization. Elected by her fellow ambassadors, Emily is proud to represent the school, and enjoys partaking in events at CRSM. Emily remarks on how the experience has helped her grow personally and professionally, “the program has opened up a lot of opportunities for me. Being a Student Ambassador has allowed me to get to know the community more, as well as develop confidence in public speaking, and speaking with donors.”
Kyara B., CRSM ‘24, was elected Secretary of the Student Ambassadors this year. Kyara has really enjoyed speaking with our donors at events such as Elevate and Founders, as she likes “getting to know them and their values.” She is enthused that, “they are so dedicated to our studies, and it feels really nice knowing that there are people in the community who want to see us succeed.”
Thank you to all of our Cristo Rey St. Martin Student Ambassadors. Your contributions to the school do not go unnoticed, and you are terrific representatives of our school and our mission!
