According to the development "please give us money" letters, the Annual Fund at my high school covers about 9% of the budget. I believe that the endowment covers quite a bit more. The current capital campaign is looking to raise about $45 million to strenghten the endowment, renovate several buildings, and beef up annual giving. I'm certain that isn't going to be a problem.

The congregation donations to the parish helped support the catholic school I went to from first to eighth grade, though there were the occassional capital campaigns, and I'm pretty sure that the annual Bazaar kept the school running for six months.

Tuition was significantly greater at the high school than the catholic school. Teacher's salaries were higher at the high school than the catholic school. Friends from high school got better standardized test scores and into better schools than from jr. high, who went on to catholic high schools or public school. Except the kids that went on to the Jesuit school. They did very well.
