They are behind on enrollment too.
Weren't they slated to move up to 5A this year pre-split?
I know Rummel has been struggling with enrollment as well.

HC had to opt up. Even with all those new facilities they are barely over 500 boys in the high school division. The thing is all the private schools except Brother Martin and Jesuit are struggling with enrollment. BM and Jes will continue to be the cream of the crop of the catholic schools. Hell, Jesuit might also be the cheapest catholic school in the city. HC made a dumb move building so close to BM. With the rise of charter schools (which is a bubble, but not sure when it will burst) the non BM and Jes catholic schools are going to take a big hit. Charters are on the rise in Jefferson too. That system is really going to take a lot of the best students and athletes in the local area.

Rummel and Shaw, and probably HC too, also are struggling because they cater to a lot of middle class working families and there aren't many rich alumni giving back. Also, I think the idea of being a legacy at those schools don't matter as much as they do with BM and Jes. Plenty of Shaw and Rummel grads would send their kids to other schools, especially the charters, without thinking too much about it.
