Actually if I remember it got about $1200. The school cost 5.5 million. Now they are in the beginning stages of building a 13.5 million addition to the entire campus. The church owns the entire block plus quite a bit across the street on the back side of the church. Church was built in 1875 & the old school (now nothing but a sdistant memory) was built about 2 years before that. The best building on the block, other than the church & school is downa t the far corner - a former funeral home - quite big & fancy. It's now a parrish house used for all sorts of small gatherings, expecially when school is in session.
