Mission:
United by faith and service, 
St. Anthony of Padua School community forms knowledgeable students who are moral and courageous Catholic leaders.
Notes from Mrs. Pudelko:

  • HEALTH DEPARTMENT TOOLKIT: The Health Department continues to update the School Toolkit. All parents are encouraged to review these updates here (as of 9/11/20). When you are calling for your child, please be specific in the symptoms that he/she has and update us if the symptoms change. We appreciate all that parents are doing to ensure that our students stay healthy, which will allow us to stay in school for in-person learning. If your child is displaying symptoms, please keep him/her home from school.
  • CANVAS: Thank you to all of our parents who have started to utilize Canvas to review what our students are learning in school. The Office of Catholic Schools has provided many resources to assist parents with learning. You can access those resources here. For classroom specific information, please email your child's homeroom teacher. At this time, please continue to check Infinite Campus for the most up to date grades for your children.
  • SCHOOL GROUP PICTURES: Tomorrow, Friday, September 18, we will be taking group class pictures (each student photographed individually), so all students need to be wearing their school uniform.
  • Blessing of the Pets: Information for Blessing of the Pets will be sent home soon. Mark your calendar for October 2nd or 4th.
  • Friday Mass: Mass will be available via livestream on Friday on our website (saparish.com). Join us this Friday - music will be played during Mass!
