Our Elementary School Education

Serving Kindergarten through Fifth Grade

Saint Anthony Catholic School Elementary School is a critical time in a child’s development, where both moral and academic foundations are established. At Saint Anthony Catholic School, we work alongside families to nurture these foundations, ensuring students grow in their faith and are guided to lead Christ-centered lives.

Our elementary curriculum offers a high-quality, faith-infused education that supports the whole child. Through Catholic values and rigorous academics, students deepen their faith, engage meaningfully with the world, and embrace a life of service to God and others.

Academic Programs

We focus on building essential skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, and innovation. In addition, students develop technology proficiency to prepare for success in a digital world. Our curriculum aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards, ISTE Technology Standards, and the standards adopted by the Diocese of St. Petersburg.

Facilities + Technology

Our school offers modern facilities and up-to-date technology to enrich student learning. Our staff supervises all technology use closely, while back-end software helps ensure students engage with it safely and effectively.. Students explore modern tools in a secure and guided environment.

Embracing Technology

At Saint Anthony, we intentionally integrate technology into the curriculum to enhance learning. Students use Google Workspace for Education, Microsoft Office, and learn introductory coding skills. With access to computers and iPads, technology becomes part of daily lessons, supporting and enriching the classroom experience.

Science Lab

Our science lab brings learning to life through hands-on experiences that spark curiosity and exploration. Students collaborate, create, and solve problems while building core scientific skills. These experiences extend into the classroom, where additional hands-on learning is integrated into everyday lessons.
