We strive to integrate truths and values of the Catholic faith into the students’ lives; to explore ways to deepen the students concern for and skill in peacemaking and achievement of justice.</div> <bR> <div> We recognize each child as an individual made in the image and likeness of God. This child is a person with dignity, worth, and potential. As Catholic educators, we strive to educate the whole child and to motivate each student to stretch and grow in the direction of his/her full potential. St. Anthony of Padua School functions as part of the larger community of parishes in the Archdiocese. It is necessary to work with parents, other parishioners, and the archdiocesan personnel to actualize our goals. We aim to be a living, conscious and active Community of Faith.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="0abffc40.gif" border=0 width="255" height="196" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </td> </tr></table></body>
