Dear Families of St. Anthony of Padua Catholic School,
Next week is
Spirit Week
! It will be a fun-filled five days of celebrating our students, our school, our families, our alumni and our faculty/staff as we remember our yearlong theme of
“Belong”
and our Spirit Week theme of
“Home Sweet Homecoming”
! Please plan to attend our festivities on Thursday night. Our campus will be open from 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm so that current and alumni students/families can visit classrooms and teachers. Near our field, we will also have food trucks, face painting, activities for our younger dolphins and more. Then, please cheer on our undefeated Varsity Dolphins at 4:30 pm and our Junior Varsity Dolphins at 5:30 pm on the soccer field. I love opportunities when we can celebrate the blessing of our school. This is one of those so please don’t miss it!
Only by His Grace,
Veronica Tucker
