St. Anthony's High School vs. St. John The Baptist Diocesan High School

Founded on the Franciscan principle, “Capture the heart and the mind will follow,” this Roman Catholic college preparatory school encourages young men and women to nurture their moral, intellectual, aesthetic and physical faculties in an atmosphere of faith, respect and encouragement.

The basic curriculum at Saint Anthony's includes required courses in Theology, English, Social Studies and Physical Education (4 years); Mathematics, Science, French or Spanish (3 years); Health, Art, Music or Drama (1 year).

Honors and Advanced Placement courses are offered to students who qualify, with electives in all disciplines.

Even before New York State required it, all students were called upon to receive a Regents diploma.
