TeacherWeb® - St. Anthony School

Welcome!

Welcome to the community of St. Anthony School! We provide an environment conducive to learning, and development of moral values and sound judgments. Since special knowledge and skills are required for the effective pursuit of justice and peace, St. Anthony School strives for excellence in its academic program. Growth in wholeness and holiness are hallmarks of our educational program.

We believe education is one of the most important ways the Church honors and fulfills its commitment to the dignity of all persons, and to building community.

"A Foundation for Life"

Message from the Principal

IMPORTANT NOTICE! The Home School Parent Meeting will now be on Monday, November 9th at 6:30 PM in the Meeting room!

Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus to the Church that he founded. Through education, the Church seeks to prepare its members to proclaim the Good News and translate this Proclamation into action (Bishops' Pastoral, To Teach as Jesus Did). St. Anthony School affords each of its students the fullest and best educational ministry-message, fellowship in the life of the Holy Spirit and service to the Christian community.

Mrs. Elizabeth Carney

Our School's Nursing Hours Thank you so much for all of your help. Thanks to your dedicated actions, nursing services will be restored to one extra day per month. This is by no means what our children deserve. However meager it is, one extra day is one extra day. Thank you again.

Help our Children!
