Call Meeting to Order-Laura Martin

Opening Prayer-Mr. White

Father’s Report:

Father asked to go first. He has not been to a meeting at all this school year.

Has bad news.

Five years now Catholic schools has had a new director. Not every school responds or understands his demands.

Every school has to be responsible with finances. He submitted a budget with tuition included and it was rejected.

He has to submit a revised budget, with a minimum of 5% increase in tuition.

It is out of his hands for the increase. Have to have money to keep up the school, and increase the salaries for the teachers. It is nothing personal it is just something that has to be done.

Highest increase is $22 per month for Non-Catholic.

Diocese will have money to help Catholic families that cannot afford the increase.
