Testimonials

My family was involved with St. Anthony School from 2006-2012. Recently we moved out of state where my daughter now attends a fantastic public school. However, there is one component missing here that she, and all the others at St. Anthony, received in abundance: LOVE. St. Anthony School has excellent teachers and a strong principal. The entire staff is dedicated, motivated, professional, and LOVING. I am so thankful my children were able to receive in their early years the strong academic and moral foundation that St. Anthony school provides.

Top quality education for the White Mountain area! I cannot express how incredible the staff and teachers are at St. Anthonys. My children have been attending the school for years now and I can truly see how they have been shaped and developed into true student leaders of our community. Take a look at the local newspaper from time to time and you will see the incredible news stories about how the students of St. Anthonys give back to the community. I choose to invest in my children's future by sending them to the best learning environment in the White Mountains.

My son has attended St. Anthony's since 2008. Classes are small (appx. 9-15 students per class) Therefore, each child receives alot of one on one interaction. The teachers are amazing, and they care about your children. You do not have to be Catholic and they have outstanding tuition support.

My son attended St. Anthony's from 1st - the first half of 4th grade. We moved out of the state and he is now in a public school. The quality of education that he received was excellent. The teachers are work very hard to bring out the best in all of the kids as well as maintain high academic standards. They are concerned with developing your child's mind, body and spirit, and my son's faith life has been greatly enhanced by the way the Catholic teachings are incorporated into every day lived experience in the classroom, on the playground and beyond. The principal and the assistant principal have provided very clear boundaries and continuity in their ability to administer and facilitate a strong, safe and encouraging environment for the students, parents and teachers. In transitioning to a public school, my son has been very well prepared in all areas of academics. I would highly recommend St. Anthony's to anyone looking for a quality education for their child.
