Providence Cristo Rey High School

Interim President is Mentoring Students and Giving them Haircuts

Fred Yeaky, the newly appointed Interim President of Providence Cristo Rey High School joins us on Community Connection.

***He says that Providence Cristo Rey has a 100% College acceptance rate.***

Fred Yeaky is giving students haircuts for free. He calls his shop, ‘Grooming the Outer Man, Guiding the Inner Man.’ .

He says. “A haircut is not about your initial cut. It’s much like life,” Yeakey said. “It’s not always about getting a fresh cut it’s about maintaining what you have.”

This has helped children without male role models bond.
