Happy Friday after a great full week! This past week, you should have received a letter asking for your support of the Fund for St. Anthony. I want to take a moment to explain the purpose of the Fund for St. Anthony. Tuition covers approximately 80% of our expenses and programs. Through your participation in the Fund for St. Anthony, our Gala, Steps 4 Students and more, we generate the remaining funds to balance our budget and expand our offerings. Thanks to these efforts, we have been able to extend our Enrichment program, purchase flexible seating for our students, put into place the items needed for our new COVID protocols, offer exciting professional development opportunities for faculty, increase tuition assistance and more. Thank you to those who have contributed, to those considering a gift, and those praying of the success of the Fund for St. Anthony.

The following students have been nominated by their homeroom teacher for the Character Counts award for the month of August. These students have exemplified the character trait of Reverence. The definition of reverence is to feel or demonstrate an attitude of deep respect, honor, and/or admiration. Congratulations to these students!
