WOW! St. Anthony’s put on an amazing performance of Lion King Jr. I would like to give a special shout out to Mrs. Doerr and Ms. Futter and the many teachers, parents, and students who put on such a wonderful production of Lion King Jr. From the set design to the costumes to the musical talent the show was fantastic. We truly have amazing talent here at SAS. Thanks to the cast for all of your hard work. I heard so many wonderful reviews of the show. I would also like to thank Mrs. Jacque Singleton for her choreography; Mr. Tony Singleton for help with the lighting; the Reyes family for their help with the sound system, and Jeff Wagner our first Student Director.
I want to give a shout out to our 5th – 8th grade dance team. The SAS Dance Team performed at halftime of the Providence High School Basketball Game this past Friday. Great job girls! Thanks to Coach Debbie Miller and I also want to give a shout out to Tessa Holifield and KB Merchant and SAS graduates Kieran Kelly and Claire Reyes for receiving Division 1 Superior rating in the CYO Music Competition.
On Thursday, February 15th, St. Anthony School held their annual Scripp Spelling Bee Competition. Each classroom had a spelling bee to determine the classroom winner. Our classroom winners then competed to find the overall school winner. The entire school body enjoyed a lively spelling bee where for several rounds there were no missed words. A special thanks goes to Cheryl Freund who did a super job as pronouncer, and the judges Glenda Minnick and Judge Jimmy Guilfoyle. I would also like to thank Mrs. Marabeth Thomas for being the coordinator of the Spelling Bee. Congratulations to our school winner, sixth grader, Jeremy Lopez. Jeremy will move on to the regional Scripp Spelling Bee. The runner up was sixth grader, Carter Lannan.

Students in grades 3 through 8 will begin ISTEP+ testing on Monday, February 26th and will test through the week. Students in grade 3 will take the IREAD Test beginning on Monday, March 5th. It is very important that the students get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and be at school on time. Tardy students will have to remain in the office if their class has stated the test. Please, it is very important for your child to be at school each day and on time so that we do not have to arrange for make-up testing time.
Mrs. Munson is already hard at work on preparing for Field Day! She is in need of donations of dish soap bottles that have been washed out. If you have any that you would like to send in, it would be greatly appreciated.
Wow, what a great parish turnout for the Saint Anthony Youth Ministry Father- Daughter Dance! We loved seeing so many beautiful gals with their lovely dresses spending an evening with their special date. It was heartwarming to see so many girls show up to the dance with a sparkle in their eye and a smile on their face. Hats off to all of the dads, grandfathers and other special guys who danced the night away while creating memories they will cherish for a lifetime. Lots of photos can be found on the Saint Anthony Youth Ministry Facebook page and on the parish website.
Each year, the Clark County Sherriff’s Department hosts a class for fifth graders in which they learn about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. Sergeant Joe Waters spent ten weeks with the students during which time the students learned about the harmful effects of illegal drugs, tobacco, and alcohol. They practiced using a decision model so they can be prepared to recognize the consequences of their decisions. Finally, they discussed bullying and cyber-bulling. The course ended in an essay contest. The classroom winners were Destiny Deaver, Henry Dixon, and Drew Kelly. The overall school winner was Drew Kelly. Congratulations to all the essay winners and D.A.R.E. graduates!
We had a wonderful Catholic Schools Week! We enjoyed many activities throughout the week. We had out of uniform days, shared random acts of kindness, watched a movie as a whole school, parents came to Mass with students, Justin Campbell gave a vocation speech, we took part in a living rosary, had a pep session, and ended the week with the 8th grade versus teacher volleyball game. It was a fun, faith filled week. We also had a Coin War benefitting Pennies from Heaven and Catholic Charities. I am so amazed at the amount of money we collected. Our grand total that we collected for the two charities was $2000.38. Our classroom winners were: 1st place – 2nd grade with $358.13 2nd place – 1st grade with $297.40 3rd place – Kindergarten with $291.93 4th place – 4th grade with $263.85 Our 2nd graders were treated with front row seats at the volleyball game and enjoy a special treat. Great Job!
SAS class competition time for box tops. Can a class beat Mrs. Reardon's second graders this time??? Winning class will get out of uniform day and ice cream party!! Class competition runs February 12th -23rd. Send in your box tops via back pack mail to Abby Hoyland 4W. Please mark all children in your family on the envelope or baggie so each of your children's class receive credit. No need to divide them. If you have 50 box tops to send in and have 2 children, just put both of your children's names and classes on them so I make sure they both get the credit for their classes. Good Luck to all classes!
