Abstract
Among the leading problems in the field of education today, the question of school finance is demanding an increased measure of attention. The spirit of investigation and research is growing apace with the needs and difficulties of our school systems. Speaking in general terms, the educator in America finds himself confronted by two main issues in this regard; the one, refers to the educational efficiency of the school, and the other, to its financial cost. We are directly concerned in this study, with the second problem, and with its particular bearings upon the Catholic School. To those responsible for the continuous progress of our Catholic Schools, it is apparent that their duty lies not only in keeping abreast of every improved, scientific method of teaching, but also in the path of more careful inquiry into the full economic charge of supporting this educational work.
