      • Although SIL has a mainly white population (which could be due to its location) the school is economically diverse. It is a very good school and friendly community.

    • I'm surprised. Most parochial schools I know have a large Hispanic and sometimes Black population.

      • not SIL (it's considered an "elite" parochial school)

      • SIL's tuition is significantly higher than other dicesian schools and their fundraising is successful

        • So far Larkin is doing a terrific job. She is tough and extremely competent. She is also very kind and approachable. A lot of parents I have spoken with seem to like her and have a lot of confidence and faith in her abilities.
