In 2004, the Sisters of the Holy Child founded St. Martin de Porres in partnership with the Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa, Resurrection Fathers, Viatorians, and St. Mary's Parish, Lake Forest.
St. Martin de Porres High School is a Catholic, coeducational college preparatory
school. As a Cristo Rey Network school, St. Martin de Porres makes education
affordable through each student’s participation in the Corporate Internship Program. Students work one day a week at an entry-level job in the corporate world, while spending the other four days in the classroom. Four students work at one job for one day each week. The salaries the students earn pay for most of their tuition for the year.
At St. Martin de Porres, each student is encouraged to develop to their full potential in an atmosphere of mutual respect
for the religious and cultural heritage of every individual.
As an endorser of St. Martin de Porres, the Society appoints two board members, publicly supports the schools, contributes personnel and money as able, and shares the Society's educational traditions.
