Dear St. Anthony Families,
 
The St. Anthony School
Tuition Assistance Program, 2013
is a yearly commitment that we make to keep St. Anthony School accessible, affordable and available to all our families.  This commitment is the hallmark of our faith and service in regards to the educational mission of the St. Anthony Church and School.
 
This year we have accumulated additional financial resources that will be dispensed soon.  The application process for determining financial need in allocating tuition assistance can be found on our homepage of our school website at www.stanthonysschoolct.orgunder the FACTS logo for the 2013-2014 financial aid application.
 
With the grace of God and the assistance of wonderful benefactors, we will continue to offer students the lasting gift of a Catholic education by affording families that qualify tuition assistance.
 
Through our site, we hope to provide answers to questions associated with the Tuition Assistance Program's application process.  To assist you further, please contact Susi Johnson at 860-582-7874 or by emailsjohnson@stanthonysschoolct.org.

Bristol Press & Observer Press Release

 

 
In order to create a special keepsake for Pope Emeritus, Benedict XVI, the children of St. Anthony School worked diligently to show their love and appreciation for the shepherd of the Roman Catholic Church.  A picture book was created with photographs of each Pre-K through 8th grade class, sending specific wishes for the Holy Father as he begins his retirement.
 
 
Peace, love, hope, prayer, joy, wisdom, faith, caring, harmony, and health are pictorially displayed in the leather-bound book, which is currently traveling to the Vatican.  A special contest was held for students to create the cover art for the book. Camryn Lefrancois of Grade 2 illustrated the winning cover, which is a portrait that she drew and colored of Benedict XVI. Her reward was of historic proportions, as she was presented with pink rosary beads recently blessed by the pontiff himself. St. Anthony School and Parish continue to pray for the good health and happiness of their former shepherd.
