I think the real challenge is going to be next year and the year after that.
Can they continue to attract parents if one of the only things families in the city know about the school is that their first principal was arrested?
All right.
We're going to Xavier High School.
It's a private Catholic school on a beautiful, sprawling campus on the city's north side.
And I want to start, Aisha, in the hallway at the moment I saw what is the largest trophy case I have ever seen.
Oh, my.
You all take sports seriously.
Yeah, these are just the runner-up trophies.
Wait, are you joking?
No, I guess we do have a few championship ones, only because we've run out of room.
Chris McCarvel is the president of the entire Xavier Catholic school system, which includes roughly seven private elementary and or middle schools, plus Xavier High School, all in and around Cedar Rapids.
And Aisha, I started with the trophy case.
Because as somebody who's visited a lot of schools in my career, what I really see here is success and money.
Upstairs at the school, the high school has a beautiful chapel, seats about 100 students.
They shouldn't be getting faith development just in theology.
So it used to be a combination of tuition and financial support from alumni and the local parish.
Next year, families will pay between nine and ten thousand dollars a year in tuition.
Non-Catholic families pay a little more.
Until recently, tuition was high enough that Xavier was out of reach for some families in the city.
