My daughter had a great experience at this school, made lots of friends, graduated in 2012 and she still has her same friends from St Anthony. The teachers are great at this school.

If you are a regular student, the small class sizes and strong bonding will be a sell for you. If you are an athlete and have talent, you can't lose while being on scholarship here. Brian Walsh is a strong recruiter and wants top athlete to come through this school so either you need to be a student with a wealthy upbringing or an athlete with skills to make this school your home.

Love S.A.!! I'm proud to say I graduated from S.A. in 1992, My daughter Jazz graduated in 2014 and my son Dre graduated in 2016! We are now all Alumni if S.A. Mr. Shaubert the Principle is the best! He really helped us out and I appreciate the school providing me with financial assistance otherwise I wouldn't of been able to send my kids to this school. I wanted my kids to receive the best education while learning more about our Catholic Faith and I knew Saint Anthony would give them both. I highly recommend this school to anyone who has children ready for High School!!

I find the teachers to be very caring and concerned for the students and always available to them. The office staff and faculty are always accessible as well. Both my daughters did well there and loved the school and faculty.

Very good school both academically and athletically, they helped me grow as a student and as a Catholic. Strongly recommend. There is a very strong bond due to the small school population size and a large amount of one-on-one attention.

Worst School Ever
St Anthony high school is a complete joke I wouldn't send even the lowest of kids to this hell hole. I sent my daughter to St. Anthony for four years because I feared the public school system but boy was that a mistake. Wilson or poly are much better options my youngest daughter is now attending poly and while its not the best school in the world its a much much better school then St. Anthony. I was attracted to St. Anthony's the same way I think a lot of parents are I heard the principal speak he spit out all these good facts about the school hes a real salesman. He
