Catholic“education aims not only
to communicate facts but also
to transmit
a coherent, comprehensive
vision of life,
in the conviction that the truths contained in that vision liberate students in the most profound meaning of

NOTES
NOTES ON CATHOLIC SCHOOL EMPLOYEES (PAGE 5):
1. K-12 Faculty: Employees whose primary responsibility is teaching. This includes classroom teachers and specialists.

3. K-12 Staff: Employees whose primary responsibility is focused on the support of faculty and school leaders.
4. The total number of preschool directors and staff includes only those individuals who are employed by the Catholic school or parish. It does not include employees of the eight, independently- operated early learning programs leasing space in our Catholic school buildings.
5. Catholic schools were not asked to report religious affiliation or degree level of employees serving preschool students.
NOTES ON TUITION AND FEES (PAGE 6):
Published Tuition: Highest stated tuition a school charges before applying any discounts and financial aid.
Mandatory Fees: A flat-rate fee charged to all students in all grades in addition to tuition (e.g. enrollment/re-enrollment fee; fundraising fee; technology fee) as reported by the school.
Each K-8 Catholic school has its own unique tuition, mandatory fee, and discount structure.
*The data on the Catholic School Financial Overview page includes
all K-8 parochial and K-8 private Catholic schools in the Archdiocese. Private Catholic high schools and private K-12 Catholic schools were excluded from these figures. If a school charges different rates for students in middle school and elementary school, the two rates were averaged. Data on average cost to educate and average tuition collected comes from Catholic Finance Corporation for the 2017-18 fiscal year (the most recent available). All other data is from the 2019 Archdiocesan Schools Report as reported by each school.
NOTES ON HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT DEMOGRAPHICS (PAGE 7):
Student Demographics excludes one Catholic high school due to race/ ethnicity reporting limitations at the school level.
