Our Beliefs and Goals The St. Anthony of Padua School community believes that each student is a reflection of the beauty of God and created in His love.  The school shares with the parents the task of educating their children in a loving and nurturing environment. As a Dominican School, the school provides an educational program based on the Dominican tradition of prayer, study, community, and service. St. Anthony offers a proven educational program which addresses the total development of the students through a rigorous and diverse curriculum that addresses the needs and interests of the learner. The school’s religion curriculum develops an understanding and appreciation of the Catholic faith in an atmosphere wherein a relationship with God is nurtured. St. Anthony of Padua seeks to closely collaborate with parents, the primary educators of their children, in providing educational excellence within a caring and affirming family environment.  St. Anthony of Padua attempts to instill in each child the lifelong values of respect for diversity, responsibility for self, and service to society. The school provides opportunities for each child to learn about, share in, and appreciate cultures other than his/her own, thus enabling each  to recognize and value goodness, truth, and beauty, wherever they are to be found.  St. Anthony of Padua offers each child the opportunity to experience Dominican values by emphasizing the motto, VERITAS, the lifelong search for TRUTH.    Our Philosophy At the St. Anthony of Padua School, we believe that the child we educate has both a soul and a body and is endowed with intellect and free will.  Therefore, we aim to provide for the ongoing spiritual, intellectual, aesthetic, cultural, religious, emotional, and physical development of each student, both as an individual and as a member of society. We, the faculty and staff, recognize that we share with the parents the responsibility for assuring a child’s development into a mature Catholic.  We seek to equip each student with the background and skills necessary to fully develop his/her potential within a multi-cultural, multi-economic setting.  The faculty dedicates itself to constant self-improvement and endeavors to foster in each person a love for learning and a sense of responsibility for his/her education and actions.  The purpose of these endeavors is to enable the student to live a life enriched by his/her educational experiences and to facilitate the student to effectively strive for the ultimate goal which is eternal happiness. Our Mission The mission of St. Anthony of Padua School is to provide educational excellence according to the Dominican tradition in a multi-cultural, Catholic community with emphasis on Gospel values.   Our Vision The vision of St. Anthony of Padua School is to educate students in the Catholic faith, according to the Dominican tradition, who will be lifelong learners, active Christians, charitable servers, and responsible world citizens.
