Sayre Adding Football in the Fall of 2018

Just an FYI, it costs $23,735 per year for high schoolers to go to Sayre (obviously they do have financial aid). That's a pretty big price tag.

 

Tuition & Financial Aid

 

Wow. Is my math right? Over 2K per month?

Yep. And compare that to Lexington Christian and Lexington Catholic, the two prime competitors for football players at private schools in Kentucky: LCA costs $11,547 per year and Lexington Catholic is between $9,500 and $11,700 (depending on a few factors). Are parents going to pay twice a much to send their kid to Sayre just because they are offering football?

They send their kids there now and they don't offer football. Not everyone sends their kid to a certain school for athletics, some do consider academics, student to teacher ratio, connections, and various other opportunities. Adding football will help Sayre get those that were already considering it but wanting to play football. I have 1 son that graduated from Sayre and another that would have gone to Sayre but didn't because he wants to play football.
