[Truth]

If we're talkin' football then any college in Kentucky. If we're talkin' tuition then Trinity. Trinity tuition for one year,$10,000+ and if you pay monthly it goes up by about $350 to over $11,000. Tuition at UK,$9,000+. Tuition at NCC,$5,000+. Trinity definately wins the tuition war. I make around $80 G's a year and I consider myself middle class. I could not afford to send my children to school there if I plan on sending them to college. Not even close! Tuition at Harlan high school,around $1,500. My kid's go to a public school. LOL. No wonder Trinity is the premier football school in the state. Public school's can't compete with that kind of money.

For full disclosure, I think it needs to be mentioned that Trinity does not feed and slobber at the public trough as do the government schools. The government schools receive an obscene amount of funding from local, state, and federal sources. Trinity receives nothing. Therefore, the tuition at Trinity, as well as at other privates, must be used for all school costs- plant, equipment, overhead, teacher salaries, athletics, etc. there is no other high school in the Commonwealth that offers a better all around education experience than does Trinity. Tuition and gifts must cover the cost.

To insinuate that the tuition is used to lure athletes is a typical whine of the government schools and is, obviously, an argument without a scintilla of merit.

Trinity is regarded as the best because it is the best. And, as we all know, you get what you pay for and that is certainly true in regard to education.

At $10,000.00 or so a year, a Trinity education (like a St. Xavier education, a Sacred Heart education, a LexCath education, a CovCath education, an NDA education, and many more) is a bargain. Those who can do and those who can't can go to the government schools.
