Mission Statement
St. Anthony Catholic School is a religious and educational ministry of St. Anthony - Mary Help of Christians Parish of Oakland. By emphasizing the education of the whole child, we strive to prepare our K-8th grade students to actively participate in their Catholic faith and to achieve their full potential as productive and responsible stewards of the global community. Within our nurturing, small school environment, the values we teach are reflected and interpreted by the diverse community of students and parents which we serve. St. Anthony is also one of the seven Catholic schools within the network of Lumen Christi Academies across Diocese of Oakland.
