Academic Programs

Academics

At St. Anthony, we believe in nurturing the whole child, providing an education that integrates not only academic excellence, but also the development of their unique personalities and values. Our aim is to equip our students with the tools they need to excel academically, guided by their faith, enabling them to make wise decisions now and in their future, rooted in the teachings of Christ.

Our curriculum, tailored for early childhood, elementary, and middle school students, is designed to meet their developmental needs, following both Diocesan guidelines and Next Generation Sunshine State Standards. We're proud to say that our students consistently surpass these standards.

In addition to the core subjects, we offer enriching programs in:

  • Art

  • Library

  • Physical Education

  • Music

  • Spanish

At St. Anthony, we are dedicated to helping each child thrive physically, socially, emotionally, intellectually, and most importantly, spiritually. Join us on this journey of holistic growth and discovery!

Curriculum

  • PRESCHOOL/VPK

    At St. Anthony Catholic School we participate in the State funded Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) program. We offer outstanding prekindergarten education in a safe, faith based environment. St. Anthony's VPK program has been commended by the Early Learning Coalition of Polk County for consistently exceeding demanding kindergarten readiness rates.

    If you are interested in registering your four year old for VPK at Saint Anthony, we invite you to contact us to meet with the principal and arrange a tour of the school.

    Our Elementary School comprises Kindergarten through 5th Grade.

    Kindergarten has an independent classroom unit with its own playground and butterfly garden.

    Grades 1 through 5 are located in our main classroom block, and students travel to the Specials room as their schedule dictates.
