Cascade Elementary School

I don't appreciate attending a PTA meeting in the school gym filled with other parents, and the principal, Patrica Hoyle, addressed the percentage of students that have "statistically missed school". "Studies showed that 36% or whatever percentage of the white students don't miss school; however, the blacks," and I'm just like, did I hear that right? She did it again, again, referring to the African American students as "the blacks that have missed so much school and that they need to improve". As an ally, I should have embarrassed & corrected her in that assembly. This is not a leader; this is who I don't want to lead my children. Just because she had been a principal for 10/20/30 + years, she can continue her education, tone, and humanity just as she holds her staff members accountable. Find another school; she's not out there to treat every kid equally, only selective students.

St. Anthony's is an amazing school! It is a wonderful, diverse community with a common goal of faith and academic excellence. I have worked here for 5 years, and my child has attended the last 3 years here. The change I have seen in my child and their academics has been incredible. The teachers and support staff truly care about the students and prepare them well for high school and beyond. Whether your child starts in Pre-K or joins in 8th grade you will not regret being a part of the St. Anthony community.
