Some sacrifices will have to be made. But I don't think football would be one of those. Ticket sales would save them.

Didn't know that. However, I read in Government Nannies, that federal funding of schools stopped because they didn't want to fund Catholic schools. Please don't ask me to be more specific, I read this book about 15 years ago.

My brother did the exact same thing. Private schools for three kids in St. Petersburg was outrageous. Way more than their mortgage. Tippecanoe county public schools, although not close to the best or perfect, are notable better even than St. Petersburg private schools. It was a good move for them.
