Catholic education is in crisis. In the 1960s, Catholic schools served 5.2 million students. Today, that number has plummeted to just 1.7 million, with fewer than 6,000 schools remaining. The cost—$10,000 to $22,000 per year—has become unaffordable for many Catholic families. Meanwhile, Catholic Universities have abandoned their faith-based roots, prioritizing profits over spiritual growth. Many have become Hedge Funds with Classrooms.
This crisis is hurting our Church:
- Fewer families stay together.
- Mass attendance is declining.
- Vocations are decreasing.
- The number of faithful Catholics is dropping.
We can’t afford to lose more ground.
