The mascot of Saint Anthony Catholic School is the eagle. The inspiration is taken from Isaiah 40:31, "The strength of those who wait with hope in the Lord will be renewed. They will soar on wings like eagles." At Saint Anthony, we aspire to promote an environment that fosters mental, emotional and spiritual strength so that our children may "soar on wings like eagles."
