I have benefited from a Catholic school education. My dad worked two jobs and my mother worked as a nurse to pay for their five sons’ Catholic grade and high school tuition.
Today, with many fewer sisters, brothers and priests teaching, Catholic school tuition has mushroomed, prompting the establishment of groups like the amazing Catholic Educational Foundation (CEF) to help make Catholic school affordable for struggling families.
My parish also subsidizes the cost of tuition for our parish school.
