The parents of children at the St. James Catholic School in Torrance, California, knew for a while that the school was in dire straits financially. Most of the textbooks at the school were more than twenty years old and there wasn’t even enough money to build a shade for the lunch area.
The principal of the school, Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper, and her vice principal Sister Lana Chang, were always dressed well and they seemed to be going on a bunch of trips together a few times a year. But why were the sisters taking regular vacations to Las Vegas, and further, how could they afford them?

The St. James School website claims the school is “committed to excellence in Catholic education within the structure of the Roman Catholic Faith.” The website also claims that students at the school are nurtured in a “positive, caring, and supportive environment.” It sounds just about perfect for Catholic parents wanting their children to have a solid and well-rounded education.
