On Sunday, 5/11, seven 2nd graders from SAS made their First Holy Communion: Houston Alexander, William Anderson, Jade Nelson, Gunnar Radley, Janson Rau, Patrick Smith and Dorothy Wiebold. The class also held its first ever SAS Class Mass on 5/15.
Sincere appreciation goes out to all of the businesses and families that treated the SAS faculty and staff to many different goodies during Teacher Appreciation Week. The breakroom was overflowing with everything from breakfast tacos and cinnamon rolls to beautiful floral arrangements and candies. After school ice cream, Sonic drinks, shaved ice, and Whataburger coupons were sweet gestures for the staff as well. The faculty and staff are humbled by such generosity.
A 5th grade Saint set a new SAS track record this Spring. Genesis Trujillo gave it her all and ran a record time of 8:55 in the 1600 meter run, earning herself a spot on the SAS Track Record board. Additionally, Saints that earned awards in the Diocese of Victoria Tennis tournament results were Jace Tribe/Cormac Barten - 1st place doubles, Kyle Glueck/John Neal - 3rd place doubles, and Samuel Gonzales/Hayes Kridel - 4th place doubles.
On Friday, 5/9, the SAS Advisory Council planted a tree on the large SAS playground in memory of Karl Hill. The SAS family shared the moment with Karl’s family and friends to honor his many years of dedication as an SAS parent volunteer. A plaque placed at the tree will remind future generations of Mr. Hill’s legacy at St. Anthony School.
Eight 8th graders were honored at last Thursday’s Junior High Awards Banquet and will graduate this evening from St. Anthony School at the 5pm Graduation Mass. Congratulations to Sofia Espinosa, Emily Fuller, Colette Harrell, Joshua Newman, Parker Pilat, Emmanuel Rangel, Reese Sunderman and McKinley Wright. SAS sends you on to high school with many prayers and good wishes for a bright future!
School is out for the summer starting tomorrow, 5/22 at noon. The Saintly News will resume next fall…have a wonderful and safe summer break!
“Most important of all, pray to God to set your feet in the path of truth.” [SIRACH 37:15]
