Cristo Rey Dallas College Prep Announces Kids vs. Contractors Soccer Match

DALLAS - March 6, 2017 - PRLog -- Cristo Rey Dallas College Prep (http://www.cristoreydallas.org/), an innovative, private high school located in the Pleasant Grove area of Southeast Dallas, will host a Kids vs. Contractors soccer match on Friday, March 10 at 1:30 p.m.

Called "Back the Smack," the match between students and contractors was conceived when Hill & Wilkinson contractors building the school's $10-million academic center began offering not-so-subtle skills advice during after-school soccer practices. Not to be underestimated, the soccer teams threw down the gauntlet and challenged contractors to "Back the Smack" on the field.

The competition will be a community wide event, attended by students, parents, faculty and fans and will include a pre-game barbecue to kickoff Spring Break.

Since opening in 2015, Cristo Rey Dallas College Prep (http://www.cristoreydallas.org/)  has become an integral part of the Pleasant Grove neighborhood, offering students of limited resources the opportunity to gain a college prep education while working one day a week at top businesses including The Dallas Morning News, AT&T, Hunt Oil, CBRE and others. The school/work model allows students to earn 63% of their tuition. The school's investment in the Pleasant Grove neighborhood is mirrored by the community's ongoing support of Cristo Rey Dallas students.
