2012 Warrior Dash T-Shirts

2012 Eagle Warrior Dash T-Shirts on sale now!

St. Anthony Catholic School is all about being healthy.  We have a couple of groups that are putting that love into action to help two great charities.  First, Mrs. Cathy Lutz has put together a STA staff Relay for Life Team.   This organization through the American Cancer Society is an overnight relay-style race.  While team members take turns walking, supporters camp out around a track to cheer them on to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease.  The event will take place at Liberty Park in Madison from 6 p.m. until 2 a.m. on Friday, April 20.  Come out to show your support.

And if you want to have a little more of an adventure… join several St. Anthony parents and staff members in the 2012 Warrior Dash the next day!  This is an ultimate 5K race that supports St. Jude Children’s Hospital.  We have several “Eagle Warriors” signed up throughout the day but there are still many waves left.  Thousands of warriors will be on site in Jackson on Saturday, April 21.  We will be ordering “Eagle Warrior” Dash t-shirts for those that wish to run with us!  Please call Michelle Glorioso at 601-607-7054 to find out how to get yours.  T-shirts are $18 and orders are due by April 4.

Saluting Those Who Serve America

St. Anthony Catholic School first grade students proudly showcased their talents as they performed “One Nation Under God.”  During this performance guests not only learned about the symbols of America, but also had the opportunity to show appreciation to the men and women in our audience who have served our nation in various capacities of the United States military.  Thank you to all of our St. Anthony family who have served our great country!

Congratulations to our first grade students and staff on their outstanding performance of "One Nation Under God." Thank you to all parents who assisted in making this a wonderful event for all!
