Mission Statement Survey
To ensure that our mission statement, philosophy, and Schoolwide Learning Expectations are fully integrated into the lived reality of the school, we invite all shareholders to be involved in the annual review and revision of these documents. Your input is integral to our success, please take a few moments to provide your feedback pertaining to their foundational documents. We are asking each family to complete this survey by Friday, September 27th, and we look forward to sharing the results with all of you. Each family that returns the survey will receive a free dress pass for each of their children to use between now and winter break (excluding Mass days). Thank you for your support!

Students Speaking In Support of Annual Archdiocesan Tuition Assistance Appeal
This past weekend several of our students had the opportunity to speak at each of the Masses, sharing heartfelt messages about what makes our school community so special. They also helped raise awareness of the Archdiocesan Tuition Fund, which was supported through last week's second collection. We are incredibly proud of our students and appreciate the manner in which they represent St. Anthony of Padua. Many thanks to those who spoke at our Masses as they shared their gratitude and experiences with our Parish community.
Thank You, Saints Families, for Joining Us at the Family BBQ!
Thank you everyone who came out in support of our PTO Family BBQ. We'd like to give a heartfelt thank you to our PTO Officers, Knights of Columbus, and our incredible NJHS student helpers for making this event such a great success!
As an extra bonus, the Knights of Columbus presented our school with a generous check to support our Legacy Fund. Our students, staff, and families are incredibly grateful for their continued support and commitment to our school community!

FACTS October Incidental Billings
All Saints families will notice that their FACTS account has a charge of $15.00 per student for Student Insurance. This covers school provided insurance for the school day, field trips, athletics, etc. This incidental billing is due by October 31, 2024.
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.
