Teddy Bear Drive

NATIONAL BRING A TEDDY BEAR TO SCHOOL DAY

Antonian is proud to host the Second Annual Teddy Bear Drive in loving memory of Allie Porter ’13.


All teddy bears must be new, as they will be donated to children in need. These bears serve as a small yet powerful reminder of the comfort, compassion, and love we can share during times of difficulty.


Last year, more than 320 teddy bears were blessed by the Porter family and Father Pat before being delivered to the Children’s Hospital.


Students may begin bringing in new bears on Monday, October 6, and place them in the collection bins near the front office.


Let’s join together to make this year’s donation even greater!

Pink Out Shirts - Courage Against Cancer Scholarship

First Deadline Approaching! Order Today!

The Antonian Athletic Department began participating in "Pink Out" sporting events in the month of October to raise awareness for breast cancer several years ago.

There are 11 designs to choose from. Thank you to the volleyball, girls basketball, swim, cross country, football, girls soccer, boys soccer, cheer, tennis, and theatre programs for creating a t-shirt design!
