Saint Anthony School My child loves this school, everyone is so nice and caring! She is learning so much. I am very happy with her kindergarten teacher, you can really tell she cares and wants the best for her students! Very happy with kindergarten program, can't wait to move on to first grade I know my child is getting the best education possible.

They have a small community of families. That's a positive. They have friendly office staff. They provide good academic support for the children.

As parents who wanted a Catholic school, but agonized over which one to choose, we've been extremely happy with St. Anthony's. The kindergarten teacher Ms Huecias and her aide Ms Greenhalgh are superb, and we've heard great things about the teachers in the rest of the grades from other parents, so we feel comfortable staying here through 8th grade. A number of parents actually switched here from some very good public school districts, which I found a good sign. This is a very close-knit group; the small class sizes, family involvement, and nice teachers/principal/staff make for a very nurturing environment. I was surprised how much I appreciated that aspect; I went in looking primarily for academic rigorousness, which SAS certainly has, but found I appreciated the warmth, especially for our child who came in not knowing anybody. To give an idea of how many schools we looked at before choosing SAS: St James, St Catherine, St Lawrence, American Martyers, Nativity, Our Lady of Guadalupe, along with St Monica & St Timothy on the Westside. To be fair, all the schools had some pretty marvelous/devoted staff and many had larger campuses, but SAS has been a great school for our child.

St Anthony Anthony is a great school. Everyone at this school is friendly, helpful and supportive of the students/parents from administrator to principal to teachers. My three children attend this school since they were kindergarten to present. They really love this school.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
