The philosophy of education
of Saint Anthony School centers upon the growth and development
of the total person. The school, therefore, seeks to enable
every student to grow and mature spiritually morally, intellectually,
aesthetically, physically and socially. The program of the
school is designed to accomplish these goals.
The students learn to integrate the message
of the Roman Catholic Church in their daily lives by responding
in a spirit of loving service to the school, church, and society.
They learn to seek and communicate truth in every endeavor.
By proclaiming the Gospel, by respecting and appreciating
the cultural diversity of the students and their community,
and by sharing an active responsibility for the well-being
of others and of all creation, they grow in friendship with
one another and with Christ.
Recognizing the parents as the primary
educators of their children, the school works together as
partners with them in developing the gifts and talents of
the students. Together they maintain standards of academic
excellence, and build a faith community through shared experiences.
Such experiences challenge one to promote peace and justice
for all, which is the goal of every Christian.
