Enrollment and Value
I’m spending a lot of time with Catholic schools in the Midwest and Northeast where enrollment trends are a concern and a challenge. We often hear and see through research that populations are changing and shifting, more people are moving to the sunbelt and warmer climates, and many Catholic families...
