Invest in a Bright Future for All

• Faculty and Staff Compensation
• Downtown Facility Improvements
• Endowment and Tuition Assistance
• CAT Improvements
• Catholic Central Fund

$4 million 

Rationale: 

• Increasing compensation is essential for CC to recruit and retain the best teachers. Veteran CC teachers earn less than 70% of teachers at public schools, a gap of over $20,000 per year. 

Implementation: 

• Offer a significant, one-time boost for all faculty and staff in the ‘24-’25 school year. 
• Spread the remaining funds out over the next several years, at which point enrollment growth and larger tuition revenue will sustain increased salaries in perpetuity.

$4 million 

Rationale: 

• Ensure CC is accessible to all students and positioned for enrollment growth.
• Offer modern learning spaces that are most conducive to positive learning outcomes, collaboration, and mental and physical well-being of students and staff. 

Implementation: 

• Updates to learning spaces, including new lighting, classroom furniture, and shared learning spaces and hubs.

 $3 million 

Rationale: ‍

• Offer additional tuition assistance to more families so a CC education is affordable for families. 

Implementation: 

• Bolster endowment which provides a reliable, perpetual source of tuition assistance.

$2.5 million 

Rationale: 

• Tennis courts are over 20 years old, in disrepair, and need to be completely rebuilt. 

Implementation: 

• Build eight post-tension concrete tennis courts, entryway arch, pavilion, and shade structures.

$1.5 million 

Rationale: ‍

• Ensure that the Catholic Central Fund – the fund that supports tuition assistance, student programs, and teaching and learning initiatives – is not neglected during the campaign.

Implementation: 

• $500,000 per year allocated to CC Fund over the next three years.

• Tuition for the 2023-2024 school year is $13,250. The actual cost to educate each student is $15,250.
• CC now offers a variable tuition model. No longer ‘one-size-fits-all’ regarding tuition, CC allows families to apply for a reduced tuition rate that is based on their unique financial situation.
