[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Catholic schools have 5 elementary schools that are 100% free for all children that attend. They go on to the Catholic high schools, I imagine, on FA.[/quote]

Which 5 elementary schools?

I'm aware of 2 Catholic schools that have a specific mission to serve low income kids.  San Miguel, which is middle school, and only serves boys, which I believe is tuition free, and Don Bosco Christo Rey which is a high school where students work to pay a portion of their tuition, but where families are still asked to pay about $2,500 a year.

There is also the Bishop Walker School, which is an elementary school for low income boys East of the River, and is tuition free, but it is Episcopalian, not Catholic.[/quote]

Washington Jesuit Academy is also essentially free for the students selected to attend. That's not K-8, but they are really focused on placing the boys into good high schools. I'd assume all of them get significant financial aid in high school. [/quote]
