Catholic education is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue by nurturing the soul on truth, goodness and beauty so that, in Christ, the student may know, glorify and enjoy God. This defines our method and goal at St. Anthony of Padua school. How can this be done with children? Well, it is certainly not completed by the end of seventh grade, but we aim to make a good beginning! As Catholics, we are heirs to a rich cultural heritage, and we seek to draw on this deposit of truth and beauty to form our students’ souls so that they are set on a course to ultimately enjoy God. This is a communal effort with parents and parish. What a great blessing it is to be able to engage together in such an important project! If you are a visitor to this web site and interested in a Catholic education for your son or daughter, please give me a call. I would be happy to elaborate on how St. Anthony of Padua School may be a good fit for your family.
