Class of 2026 Parent/Student Information Forum #1
Wednesday, October 27, 2021
Each year, Antonian hosts a Parent/Student Information Forum for prospective families, which includes a clubs and organizations fair, a presentation by the administration, as well as an opportunity to have any questions answered. This year, mindful of the ongoing pandemic, Antonian will host two parent nights (interested families need only to attend one of the two events).

Our first event will take place on Wednesday, October 27th. Families have the option of attending the student life club and student athlete fair in our Mark Recko Gymnasium starting at 6:00 p.m. The formal presentation by the Antonian administration will follow in our Steve A. Hernandez Auditorium starting at 7:00 p.m. RSVP by clicking the link below.

If you are unable to attend the Wednesday, October 27th forum, the second event will be held on Thursday, November 4, 2021. Mark your calendars, we hope to see you there!

Please share with your family and friends!

ASVAB Testing | Friday, October 22, 2021

The Antonian counseling department will offer the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) to interested juniors on Friday, October 22 at 8:00 AM. Registration will be limited to the first 25 students who sign up. There is no cost to the student and plans to enlist in the military is not a requirement to take the test.

The ASVAB is a great career assessment tool that can help you identify which career areas best suit you and choose a college major based on your career field. Students who take the test also have access to the ASVAB Career Exploration Program. This is a comprehensive career exploration and planning program that includes the most widely used multiple-aptitude test battery in the world. The program also offers an interest inventory and other activities designed to help students explore the world of work and gain confidence in making college and career decisions. Results of the aptitude test and the interest inventory enable students to evaluate their skills, estimate their performance in academic and vocational endeavors, and identify potentially satisfying careers. 

To register for the ASVAB, email Bill Hill at bhill@antonian.org.

Thank you, Coach Hinojosa!

"We want to send a shout out to one of the Cross Country/Track and Field coaches. Coach Hinojosa heroically saved tailgate night at Friday's Homecoming football game.
         
Coach Hinojosa tirelessly shuttled supplies for the evening's event up and down the steep-sloped hill behind the baseball dugout and across a large pool of water right after a significant downpour. Thank you so much, Coach for all of your endless support!"
