Celebrate World Kindness Week with us November 12-15! 💕
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 National Junior Honor Society Students!
This week we installed the newly inducted members of our National Junior Honor Society Chapter and welcomed back our returning NJHS students from last year. We thank them for their leadership and service and pray that God's grace shines upon them as they embody our school's mission.
Support Wreaths Across America with Our NJHS
On December 14th our National Junior Honor Society and Student Council will participate in Wreaths Across America by visiting the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Boulder City. Our students will remember and honor our veterans by laying wreaths on the grave sites of our country’s fallen heroes. This meaningful service allows us to pay tribute to those who have bravely served.
We invite our school community to join us in supporting this cause by donating a wreath. Every contribution helps to honor and remember our heroes. Please click here for more information on how to donate. Thank you for your support!

Life Skill of the Week
Our Life Skill for this week will focus on "Patience: Wait calmly for someone or something." We all have moments where our patience grows thin-either with others, ourselves, or even with God's plan. According to Scripture, patience is a virtue, a fruit of the Holy Spirit and a sign of someone who trusts in God. This means that when we allow the Holy Spirit to work in our lives, we can develop the ability to wait calmly and trust in God's timing. In the Catechism of the Catholic Church, patience is associated with the virtue of fortitude. Fortitude helps us to remain steadfast during challenging times. Furthermore, the Catechism explains how virtues are habits that help us to act in accord with reason and faith. Patience is a key part of living a virtuous life.

FACTS One-Time Family Fee for New Families
If this is the first year your child is attending St. Anthony of Padua School, there is a one-time family fee of $525.00 billed to your incidental billing account. Our New Family Development Fee will be charged to new Saints families on October 1 and will be due by December 31, 2024. Families are able to make a one-time payment through your Family Portal or make smaller payments until the end of December. This fee is assessed to all new St. Anthony of Padua School families and provides the funding necessary for advertising, marketing and communications strategies, as well as equipping our school with additional resources to ensure an academically rigorous program within a state-of-the-art environment. Do not confuse this one-time Family fee of $525.00 with the annual Enrollment fee of $500.00 per student. Should you require an extension, please contact the School Office in order to accommodate your request. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
