Sacramento diocese sees big drop in Catholic school enrollment - Sacramento News - Local and Breaking Sacramento News Sacramento Bee:

"Diocesan leaders are responding quickly to the recent drop by trying to increase awareness of Catholic schools. Over the next month, they will educate principals on public relations, talk to parents of students in faith formation classes about sending the children to parochial schools, and reach out to the Latino community – the fastest growing segment of the church.
Tuition at a Catholic K-8 school in the Sacramento diocese averages $3,800 annually. Financial assistance is available to needy students."
