St. Anthony of Padua
February 2, 2024 - Volume 4; Issue 24
As Catholic Schools Week comes to a close, we wish to thank everyone for helping us to celebrate all that makes St. Anthony of Padua such an incredible community! This week’s celebration has been extra special following such a wonderful accreditation experience and we are delighted to share the results with all of you. Please know, the accreditation process is more than a stamp of approval or quality assurance. It is a collaborative results-oriented school improvement process that serves as the underpinning of our highly effective school. We are very proud to share our January 18, 2024 "Report of Findings" with each of you.
Thank you Saints for a wonderful CSW celebrating Catholic Education!
Saints Craft Hygiene Kits for Las Vegas Rescue Mission
Last week, our dedicated student council participated in a meaningful event at Bishop Gorman High School alongside student council members from the Archdiocese. Together, they assembled hygiene kits for the Las Vegas Rescue Mission. Remarkably, they completed 400 bags in just 19 minutes! Their efficiency and compassion are truly commendable, reflecting our school's commitment to service and community involvement. Great job to our student leaders for their incredible efforts!
Saints Night with the Silver Knights
Get ready, Saints, for an exciting night at the Silver Knights! We're thrilled to announce that we've already sold 80 seats for the upcoming game. With just 20 more seats, they'll confirm our students to sing the National Anthem before the puck drops. And if we sell an additional 70 seats, we'll have the fantastic opportunity to take a group picture on the ice post-game! Let's rally together and make this event one to remember. Grab your tickets and join us for a night of fun and camaraderie at the Silver Knights! Click button below to purchase tickets.
Pre-K Foundation Gala Class Project
Get ready for our Foundation Gala! Our students have poured their creativity into crafting masterpieces for auction. This week, we're thrilled to showcase Ms. Huddle's Pre-K class project—a charming and practical table that reflects their dedication. Kudos to Ms. Huddle's Pre-K class for their outstanding efforts!

Saints at the Sock Hop
Last Friday marked a memorable milestone as our school hosted its inaugural family dance. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to its resounding success! A special appreciation goes out to Robert and PJ Castaneda for generously lending us their stunning mustang for the evening, adding a touch of fun to our Sock Hop extravaganza. The joy and camaraderie shared at the event truly exemplified the spirit of our community. As we cherish the delightful memories created, we eagerly anticipate hosting more family-oriented events in the future. Please take a moment to enjoy the captured moments from our dance.

Life Skill of the Week
Our Life Skill for this week will focus on "Effort: try your hardest." Effort is integral for success. What you put in is often what you will get out. If you put it a lack luster effort, the outcome will match and it won't be necessarily something that evokes pride. Always put forth you best effort. It may be challenging, you may be tired, but God gave you talents and gifts. One of the best ways to show our love for God is by using those gifts and talents to the best of our ability.
BGHS Lacrosse
Exciting news! Bishop Gorman High School is hosting free lacrosse clinics. Whether you're a seasoned player or looking to try something new, these clinics are a fantastic opportunity to learn and have fun. For additional details, please refer to the attached document and click on it for the waiver. Don't miss out on this chance to experience the thrill of lacrosse!
Extended Care & After School Activities
If your child participates in after-school activities and you pick up in Lane 2, please proceed to the outside of Lane 2, as the inside lane is reserved for aftercare pickup. Additionally, we kindly ask that if you arrive before the designated dismissal time, you park in a designated parking space to ensure a smooth flow in Lane 2.
