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. At 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 the continuous development of the students into mature Catholics. We seek to equip the students with backgrounds and skills necessary to fully develop their potential within a multi-cultural, multi-economic setting. The faculty is dedicated to constant self-improvement and endeavors to foster in the students a love for learning and a sense of responsibility for their education and actions. The purpose of these endeavors is to enable the students to live lives enriched by their educational experiences and to enable the students to effectively strive for their ultimate goal which is eternal happiness. ...read more
