St. Anthony’s School

This school is a shining oasis in a troubled world. Its small enough to provide a family feeling for every student. The excellent faculty all hold masters degrees. This urban school strives to make education possible for all who come thru their doors regardless of financial status. Good things are happening at Saint Ant.

This school is run like a family — Sister Barbara Flannery knows all the kids and helps them come to school with scholarships and other help. All the kids here are working class students of color who are bright, and the teachers really care about their success.
I was a student teacher here last year, and although there are some really negative side effects to being at a Catholic school and all that comes with that, the quality of education and special attention is amazing and worth checking out!
It’s right by San Antonio park, so it’s a nice little residential neighborhood with some great Taco trucks and easy freeway access.
