Many thanks to everyone for supporting our 20th Anniversary Parish Fall Festival this past weekend! It was our best Festival yet, filled with joy, excitement, and community spirit. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the parent and staff volunteers who generously donated their time. We also wish to thank those families who contributed various donations as well as our students for selling raffle tickets!

Life Skill of the Week
Our Life Skill for this week will focus on "Friendship: Make and keep friends through mutual trust and caring." It takes work to be a good friend. It takes effort (remember last week's life skill?), sacrifice, understanding, and empathy. Put in the work to be a good friend and cherish the friendships God has placed in your life! God sees all of his children as equal and deserving of his love. Sometimes we need to say a prayer to God asking to see others through His eyes.

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. Should you require an extension, please contact the School Office in order to accommodate your request. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
