In September of 1960, Saint Anthony School opened its doors. Today we have an enrollment of about 550 students and boast with most modern facilities and the best certified teachers. We admit students of all races, religious background, and ethnic origin; the school is well known for its exuberant spirit, its academics, and most especially for its inspiring Christian Character.

Saint Anthony School was accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in 1981. The construction of our multipurpose Gymnasium/Theatre, Science Lab and Library, saw the enrichment of our student’s athletic prowess, performing arts, technological experiences, and knowledge. Also, we have upgraded our Computer Lab by installing some of the latest technology and software in our computers. We have also given our students access to the internet and e-mail capabilities.

In August of 1995, Saint Anthony helped pioneered the Year-Round Education Program for the Archdiocese. We adopted a modified calendar allowing time for remediation, enrichment, and nonacademic programs between quarters to reduce student and teacher “burnout”.

Our Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) was restructured to promote a closer relationship among administration, students, faculty / staff and parents; to sponsor and coordinate school supporting programs and a consistent parent participation. A result of this was the recent construction of a new playground for our children.

Saint Anthony School continues to upgrade its infrastructure as the school envisions better quality facilities to promote excellence in education and a nurturing environment.
