Cottage Grove Ave. A not-for-profit, independent Catholic school, it opened in 1962 as an all-male institution. In 2013 Hales Franciscan became co-ed, and now serves about students from grades nine through 12.<\/p>\n<p>The school\u2019s financial trouble is the result of declining enrollment, and a decrease in funding support from donors. Fewer than 100 students are currently enrolled.<\/p>\n<p>Friday\u2019s donation bought the school time to continue fundraising, so that the school can keep its doors open through 2016.<\/p>\n<p>There was optimism among the Hales Franciscan alumni community at a fundraising gala last week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHales is not going to close,\u201d said Jerome Palmer Barney, a Hales Franciscan alumnus and the alumni gala\u2019s master of ceremonies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got 4,000 alumni. They\u2019re awakened now. This \u2018Hales is gonna close\u2019 has awakened them, the energy has started now,\u201d Barney said.<\/p>\n<p>At the gala, Hales Franciscan school board members announced their vision to keep Hales Franciscan students in school.<\/p>\n<p>School officials and board members will reach out to alumni and friends of the school to sponsor new students with $3,000 scholarships. Big Shoulders Fund, which provides support to Catholic schools in inner-city Chicago, would match these scholarships by $1,000 to $3,000, thereby reducing the amount each new student will pay. The school is hoping to give 25 scholarships.<\/p>\n<p>School tuition is $7,500 a year, lower than the average tuition for Catholic schools across the country. Jackson said raising tuition is not an option.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not on the table because most of our families aren\u2019t able to afford the $7,500 so it would not benefit them to increase the tuition at all,\u201d Jackson said.<\/p>\n<p>Some think the school\u2019s closing would be a devastating blow for the extensive alumni network, but would impact no one more than current students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would actually mean the world to me if Hales stayed open because I couldn\u2019t imagine going to any other high school,\u201d said Nasir Phillips, a freshman at the school who attended the gala. \u201cI actually feel safe there and I\u2019m happy when I wake up that I have a school to go to that I can actually maybe be something, become something from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Phillips felt encouraged after attending the gala.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s good to see that people are out there rooting for our school,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>That support was evidenced by Friday&#8217;s donation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am extremely excited, you can probably hear it in my voice!\u201d said Jackson after hearing news of the donation. \u201cI\u2019m very happy and confident that, now we have more time, we will be able to raise the funds that are needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The school has set up a gofundme page to aid their fundraising efforts.
