Rooted in the teachings of the Catholic Church, Risen Christ is committed to nurturing the spiritual development of our students by providing opportunities for students to deepen their relationship with God, understand Catholic teachings and traditions, and live our their faith in their daily lives.
Students participate in regular religious education classes that focus on liturgy, the sacraments, Catholic saints, and prayer. Through participation in daily prayer, opportunities for reconciliation and the celebration of weekly Mass on Thursdays, students strengthen their understanding of the Eucharist and develop a sense of belonging to the larger faith community. (Sacramental preparation is received by students at their individual parishes.)

Catholic education at Risen Christ shapes students not only academically, but spiritually and personally. We encourage students to grow in kindness, responsibility, perseverance, and a commitment to justice.

By nurturing the mind, body, and spirit, a Risen Christ education helps students develop strong character and a deep sense of purpose that will guide them throughout their lives.
Since 1993, Risen Christ has served as the first step of a student’s educational journey, laying a strong foundation for both academic and personal success. Our Mission Impact Study celebrates the remarkable achievements of our graduates and the enduring impact of their Risen Christ education.
The study found that 100% of sampled Risen Christ alumni graduated from high school and 81% enrolled in college—both rates higher than those of comparable Hispanic, Free/Reduced Lunch, and English Language Learner (ELL) students across Minnesota and Minneapolis Public Schools. These outcomes highlight the strong academic foundation students receive at Risen Christ.
Si los estudiantes tienen dificultades académicas, basándose en la recomendación de los profesores, cada estudiante será asignado a un tutor voluntario que le proporcionará apoyo en cada asignatura sin coste adicional para el estudiante o la familia.

Students are expected to demonstrate respect for others, act with integrity, and honor the property of peers, staff, and the school community. Families are seen as partners and are expected to support the school in reinforcing these expectations.

Expectations apply not only during the school day, but also at school-sponsored events (on or off campus) and when using school resources. The school may also address behavior that occurs outside of school if it negatively impacts the school environment.
Disciplinary decisions are made at the school’s discretion, with the goal of maintaining a safe and respectful community. Consequences may include loss of privileges, suspension, disciplinary probation, or dismissal, depending on the severity of the behavior.
