Let it be known to all who enter here that Christ 
is the model of its faculty and the inspiration of its students.
He is the unseen but ever present teacher in its classrooms.
He is the reason for this school.

Catholic identity is more than just attending Catholic school. It is the underlying belief that permeates aspect of the Saint Anthony School experience and helping to develop students.

According to the Papal Declaration, Gravissimum Educationis, “...the duty of educating belongs to the Church…because she has the responsibility of announcing the way of salvation to all men, of communicating the life of Christ to those who believe, and, in her unfailing solicitude, of assisting men to be able to come to the fullness of this life.” Ultimately, the Catholic school exists to help children pursue with excellence all that is good, true, and beautiful.
