My three children have gone to Saint Anthony and it's a great school. The curriculum is rigorous, but the teachers work to make each child successful. The school has wonderful extra-curricular activities such as before and after school care, competitive sports teams, hula, martial arts, student council,

Saint Anthony students do great in state or national academic and art competitions such as Geography Bee, Spelling Bee, Peace Poster, Word Power Challenge, Write in the Middle, and Science Fair.

Saint Anthony provides a fantastic, well-rounded, strong Catholic education. I love this school! Read less
