Our May Scripture Spark is Zeal—a passionate enthusiasm for doing what is right and good, especially in our love for God and others. This month, we celebrate students who show their zeal by working hard, helping others, and living with purpose and joy! 🔥 Our Saint of the Month, St. Dominic, lived with incredible zeal. From selling all he had to feed the hungry, to boldly preaching the truth and founding the Order of Preachers, he reminds us that true passion is rooted in love and service. May we be inspired to live with the same energy and commitment in all we do! 🕊️ #sacs

Our April Scripture Spark focused on Justice—giving each person what is owed to them, and giving God what belongs to Him. 💫 We’re so proud of our students who were recognized for living out this powerful virtue! 💫 Justice calls us to love God with all our hearts and to love our neighbors as ourselves (Mt. 22:36-39). Through justice, we honor God and others with the love they deserve. Keep shining, students! #sacs

Thank you, @thebougainvillahouse, for inviting Ms. Schneider to speak at the TBH breakfast. The event was powerful and eye-opening, reminding us how vital social and emotional health is for our kids—both in and out of the classroom. As a dedicated counselor, Ms. Schneider reminded us that listening without judgment builds trust and creates space for students to share their stories and feel seen, heard, and valued. Through initiatives like Lunch Bunch, Classroom Circles, and SEL lessons, she makes the counselor’s office a safe and welcoming space. Her work helps students grow emotionally, teaching them to listen, empathize, and connect—and her impact reaches far beyond the classroom, supporting teachers, parents, and the entire school community. Ms. Schneider, your heart, wisdom, and compassion are a true gift. We’re so lucky to have you! 🫶

💫 April Scripture Spark: Justice 💫 Justice is about giving each person what they are owed, including love for God and others. Jesus teaches us the greatest commandments: love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself (Mt. 22:36-39). Practicing justice helps us live these commandments through our actions. 🙏🏻April Saint of the Month: St. Katharine Drexel🙏🏻 St. Katharine Drexel, the second U.S. citizen to be canonized, dedicated her life to serving Native and African Americans. After giving up her $7 million inheritance, she founded the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament and established 145 missions and numerous schools, including Xavier University. She passed away at 96 on March 3, 1955. #sacs #sacsscripturespark

Thank you for supporting the 2025 St. Anthony Annual Gentlemen’s Dinner.

🌟 March Scripture Spark: Mercy 🌟 This month, we reflect on the virtue of mercy — showing compassion, kindness, and forgiveness to those who are suffering or have made mistakes. Mercy is about offering second chances and choosing understanding over punishment, just as Jesus showed mercy to others. 🙏 Saint of the Month: St. Teresa of Calcutta 🙏 Mother Teresa, born in 1910, devoted her life to serving the poorest of the poor in Calcutta. Answering the call of the Holy Spirit, she left her teaching career to live among the suffering, founding the Missionaries of Charity. Her work earned her the Nobel Peace Prize, and she was canonized as a saint in 2016. Her life exemplified mercy, love, and selfless service. Let’s follow their example and extend mercy in our daily lives. 💙

✨ Scripture Spark: Honesty ✨ This February, we reflect on the virtue of honesty. It’s essential for building trust, honor, and healthy relationships—helping children grow with a strong sense of self-worth. By living in truth, we align ourselves with God, who is the ultimate Truth. Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, born in 1656, is a powerful example of living in the truth. Despite opposition from her family and tribe, she embraced Christianity and dedicated her life to God, never wavering in her faith. Her final words were “Jesus, Mary, I love you,” and after her death, her smallpox scars miraculously disappeared. Canonized as the first Native American saint in 2012, her intercession led to the healing of a young boy. 🌸 Let’s honor honesty and live with the courage to stand firm in the truth! 🙏❤️

Grandparents Day 2025 is just around the corner! Here’s everything you need to know to make it unforgettable. 🧡 #SACS #SACSGrandparentsDay

As we reflect on 2024 and look ahead to the year to come, we pause to honor and express our deepest gratitude to Fr. Grady, who has dedicated over a decade of service to St. Anthony Catholic Church and School. His unwavering faith, guidance, and leadership have shaped and strengthened our community in ways that words cannot fully capture. During his final Mass with our students, Fr. Grady left us with a powerful message: to go forth, serving with love and kindness. As we step into 2025, we carry this message in our hearts, striving to show others the same kindness, love, and gratitude that Jesus taught us. Fr. Grady, we wish you a retirement filled with well-deserved rest, new adventures, and treasured moments with loved ones. Thank you for your years of faithful service and for helping deepen our faith. You will always be a cherished part of the St. Anthony family. 💙💛

On this Christmas Eve, we reflect on the journey we’ve taken together during this Advent season at SACS. From our youngest PK3 students learning about the Advent wreath and the arrival of the Traveling Mary and Joseph, to our older students creating meaningful projects that celebrate the true meaning of Christmas, each class has been part of preparing for the birth of Baby Jesus. ⭐️ Through stories, hands-on activities, prayers, and acts of kindness, we’ve deepened our understanding of His love and sacrifice. As we gather to celebrate the birth of our Savior, we remember the hope, peace, joy, and love that this season brings. May we continue to share these gifts with each other and the world. ✨ #SACSAdvent

SACS Advent Journey with Mary and Joseph 🌟 This Advent, our little ones embark on a special journey of faith and preparation for the birth of Jesus. PK3 children explored the season of Advent, learning the importance of hope, peace, joy, and love through the Advent wreath. They took part in preparing their classroom for Jesus’ arrival by cleaning and decorating, all while reflecting on the upcoming celebration of Christ’s birth. They also learned a prayer to share with their families: ‘Light of Advent, prepare our hearts with patience and kindness. Come, Lord Jesus! Heart💖🙏🏻 In Mrs. MacDonald’s PK4 Class, students had an incredible time learning about the birth of Jesus and the significance of His arrival in Bethlehem. They read the story of The Birth of Jesus and discovered the deeper meaning behind the candy cane-its shape representing the shepherd’s staff, and its red and white colors symbolizing Jesus’ sacrifice and purity. 🎄💫 At their Learning Centers, students used building blocks to create a stable for Traveling Mary and Joseph to rest during their journey. It was a day full of hands-on activities, faith-filled lessons, and meaningful moments that brought the Christmas story to life. #SACS #SACSTravelingMaryandJoseph #PKChristmas #Advent

December Scripture Spark: Generosity Saint of the Month: Saint Maximilian Kolbe Generosity is the desire to give what you have with others. Generous people are not selfish. They want to help those in need and are always willing to share. Giving your time, love, patience, attention, and affection are all aspects of generosity. Sharing a smile with someone on the street, offering a hug to a friend, or taking time for a loved one are simple acts to perform, yet they reap huge benefits. When you give or receive any of these your heart opens, your mood lightens and your trust deepens. How can you show generosity this month? #sacs

It’s going to be a festive and fun month!🎄 #sacs

Thank you @fort_lauderdale_fire_rescue and @ftlauderdalepd for visiting St. Anthony for Safety Day! A special thank to @juliesellsfl for organizing this special day! A prayer to St. Michael the Archangel for First Responders Lord, I ask you through St. Michael the Archangel, to watch over all the men and women who so generously devote themselves to helping others. Grant them courage when afraid, wisdom when they must make quick decisions, strength when weary, and compassion in all their work. When the alarm sounds and they are called to aid both friend and stranger, let the faithfully serve you in their neighbors. Amen. #sacs
