The problem, said Edison Martinez, a teacher and former student at the school, is that many in the neighborhood who want to send their children cannot afford the tuition, which is $2,800 a year for parish members and $3,250 a year for those who are not. Since the archdiocese has put so much emphasis on changing demographics in its decisions, Mrs. George asked two teachers, Mr. Martinez and Justin Rivers, an English teacher, to research the makeup of the school neighborhood. Mr. Martinez explained a satellite map he had printed out from the Internet, highlighting the low-income housing projects around the school.
