For 80 years, St. Anthony has served families in Fair Park and South Dallas, providing generations of students with a foundation of academic excellence, opportunity, and community support.
Today, St. Anthony Academy is a public charter school and International Baccalaureate (IB) academy serving more than 300 students, 85% of whom are economically disadvantaged. With a waitlist exceeding 100 students, the continued demand for a St. Anthony education speaks to the important role our school plays in the community.
At St. Anthony, we believe a high-quality education extends beyond the classroom. We are committed to educating the whole child by providing students with opportunities to learn, lead, explore, create, and discover what is possible for their futures.
Our students benefit from rigorous academics as well as athletics, arts, enrichment activities, field trips, and experiences that broaden their understanding of the world. The St. Anthony Community Center further strengthens our connection with students and families by providing programming and resources beyond the traditional school day.
As we celebrate 80 years of serving South Dallas, we are looking ahead to the next generation of St. Anthony students—and we need our community's support to continue creating opportunities for them to thrive.
St. Anthony's mission is to develop inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring young people who make better decisions for themselves and the world through intercultural understanding and respect. The school focuses on curriculum, innovative instruction, and parent and community involvement.
St. Anthony strives to create an environment based upon academics that encourage students to become active, lifelong learners who understand that people with their differences can also be right.
Transportation & Access
Without dedicated school buses, St. Anthony must rent transportation for field trips, athletic events, competitions, and other off-campus experiences. Donor support can help us reduce this barrier and give students greater access to learning and enrichment beyond campus.
Technology & Classroom Resources
Keep students and educators equipped with up-to-date technology and learning tools.
Student Enrichment
Expand access to athletics, arts, academic enrichment, and extracurricular programs.
