That's the beauty of a Catholic education - the diversity of kids. If there was no tuition assistance, you would have a "private prep" school. If I wanted that, I would send my kids to a boarding school at $15,000-$30,000. I don't mind paying full price tuition at a Catholic elementary school, even if other parents are not. Our whole world economy is based on this principal - you pay higher taxes to support the social programs of those who can't afford it. At least with a Catholic education, I know what I am getting for my money, and at $4,000-$5,000 per year per student, that is an awesome deal!! You pay $10,000-$15,000 per student for a public school education..........
