Fueled by taxpayers, the school became wildly successful over the years -- more than 10,000 students and $100 million in revenue in 2012 -- and a savior for depressed Midland. Pennsylvania. A native of Aliquippa, Pa., and son of Italian immigrants, Nick Trombetta was graduated from Quigley Catholic High School. He earned his Bachelor’s Degree from Slippery Rock State University and his Master’s Degree from the University of Dayton.
