St. Anthony of Padua is fully accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA). Having completed our most recent WCEA school visit on January 18, 2024, we wish to share our "Report of Findings" with the entire school community. This report is attached to the file included below.
Areas assessed include: involvement of shareholders, assessment of the school’s Catholic identity, defining the school’s purpose, data analysis and use, acceptable progress by all students, curriculum and instruction, support for student spiritual and academic growth, resource management and development, and the capacity to implement and monitor an action plan.
At St. Anthony of Padua, we believe that continuing evaluation and improvement of the curriculum is essential to the development of an effective educational program that promotes a lifelong love of learning. The accreditation process is more than a stamp of approval or quality assurance. It is a collaborative results-oriented school improvement process that serves as the underpinning of an effective school.
