Reasons For Tuition Increase • School operating expenses are budgeted to increase 5% from last year. • Weekly mass contributions to the parish are down. • Decreased mass contributions means less funds available for the parish to give the school to cover operating expenses. • Parish provides funds to cover 35% of the schools operating expenses. Parish pays $231K of school expenses. • The remainder of the expenses are paid by tuition and fundraisers.
Reasons For Tuition Increase • (continued) • Decreased the amount budgeted for the Annual Fund fundraiser. Contributions and # of people donating to this fundraiser has decreased. Only, 24 out 89 (27%) school families supported this fundraiser during the 2011-2012 school year.
Non-Parishoner Tuition • Decreased Non-Parishoner Tuition from $5,165 to $2,966. • Non-Parishoner tuition now in line with other Catholic schools in our district (Lake Geneva, Burlington, Elkhorn, Waterford). • Reason for decrease is to try to attract non-parishoner families to our school. • Increased enrollment would allow us to add more services to our school and keep tuition at reasonable rates.
Fundraisers • Annual Fund $40,000 55% • Big Ticket Raffle $15,000 21% • St. Nicks Breakfast $12,000 16% • Miscellaneous Fundraisers $ 6,050 8% (Walkathon & Scrip) • Chairperson needed for St. Nicks Breakfast
