School Policies
Parking Lot Safety
As we begin to have more events on campus, particularly in the evening, it is important to always be mindful of personal safety. We are blessed to be located in the community of Castle Hills, which has its own police force with whom we have a good working relationship. As a matter of fact, it isn't unusual for a Castle Hills police officer to be found roaming our halls as a courtesy to help keep us safe.

This can sometimes cause us to let our guard down. As a result, we want to take some time to offer some useful tips for you and your children (our students) who may be on campus after sundown.

  • Keep valuables, including purses and recent purchases, out of sight. Always lock them in the trunk if you have to leave them in the car.
  • When you know it will be dark when you return to your vehicle after an on-campus event, try to park closer to the buildings in a highly visible and well-lit area.
  • As you return to your vehicle, stay away from hiding spots such as bushes, building nooks, and other parked cars. 
  • Always try to walk with a companion. If you have to walk alone, have someone else watch you from a distance. Wave to them on the way to your vehicle. (Wave even if no one is watching to give the illusion that someone is watching you.) 
  • Always be alert to your surroundings. Walk with confidence. Keep your head up and look around. 
  • Do not wear headphones or be distracted by a cell phone conversation.
  • Do not dig in your purse or bag. Have the keys ready to unlock your car door as you get near the vehicle. 
  • Do not park next to large vans, trucks, or other vehicles that may block your sight.
  • Do not approach someone if they are loitering near your vehicle. Trust your instincts when you feel something is not right. Walk to a safe place and call the police.
  • Lock the doors and roll up windows once you are in the vehicle.
  • Report suspicious behavior to the police and the Antonian administration.
Student Services and Activities
Senior Grade Level

On Friday, September 25th, we will host our seniors for a grade level activity day. We ask that seniors arrive by 8:00 a.m. and come in spirit attire. Students are asked to bring their copy of Left to Tell (summer reading book), as we will begin our first book study session. Students will be dismissed at 12:30 p.m. Lunch will not be served, but the Dining Express will be open after school.
Wear Orange on October 6th

On Tuesday, October 6th, all Antonian faculty, staff, and students are asked to wear orange as a show unity against bullying. Students are encouraged to wear orange shirts, socks, and/or hair bows with their uniform bottoms. Faculty are also encouraged to wear orange articles of clothing. Let's show our school unity and "wear the orange!"
Homecoming Information

Homecoming week is always a highlight for our community. This year, we continue to focus on providing a safe environment for our students. With that, we will not be hosting a Homecoming dance, but we do plan to host other Spirit Week activities. More information will follow.
Walk, run, or bike with your family to benefit Antonian College Preparatory High School. Your registration benefits Antonian and comes with a t-shirt and other fun items. You can complete your 5K anytime virtually between October 11th and October 25th at any location.
Luby's Dining Card Distribution
Dining Cards: The new Luby's dining cards were distributed to students last week. Instructions to help assist with activating and loading the card can be viewed by clicking the button below. Please keep in mind that it will take a full 24 hours (Monday - Friday) before the card is activated and funds are available. If the dining card is loaded on site, funds are available immediately!
2020-2021 Financial Assistance
  • Tuition Assistance: The Hope for the Future office will hold a third round of awards. Grant and Aid applications will close for third round considerations on October 16th with finalized awards on November 6th. In addition, Antonian's tuition assistance committee will postpone its meeting to October to ensure families with a calculated financial need that have not already been assisted are reviewed. Please know that the Committee prayerfully considers every application with the goal of helping as many families as possible with a calculated financial need. If you have experienced a financial hardship, please work directly with our Business Office staff.

2020-2021 Tuition Past Due Balances
  • Past Due Balances and Missed Payments:  Tuition is due on the 5th of every month, unless other arrangements have been made. Past due balances and missed payments have an impact on the cash resources used to meet our financial obligations. It is Antonian's policy that a past due balance can not be carried more than 60 days and missed or unsuccessful payments are subject to late or return fees that can not be waived, so please plan accordingly. Again, if you have experienced or are experiencing a financial hardship please work directly with our Business Office staff as soon as possible.

It's A Great Day To Be An Apache
Several members of the varsity football team volunteered at the SA Food Bank Urban Farm and Garden on Saturday, September 19, 2020. They planted zucchini seeds and weeded the gardens. Their efforts will contribute to over 20,000 pounds of zucchini to be harvested in November. Above are photos of the our football players who spent their Saturday morning supporting the community. Thank you, men, for your contribution to our community.

Standard Of The Month
Integrity
This week we honor, freshman Patrick Rivera. Patrick's submission was sent to us and we thank him for being a representation of what this standard means.

"Patrick has a deep concern for racial inequality and the disparity in the criminal justice system . He lives by a strict moral and ethical code that guides him daily as an honor student striving for excellence in setting the example for his peers. Guided by his faith and the proposition that we all have a purpose in God’s eyes."
Faculty Spotlight: Ms. Stephanie Ramon
Ms. Stephanie Ramon
Our Dean of Academics supervises and leads multiple student-focused departments and ensures that each student receives access to a rigorous college preparatory education.

With a curriculum that is reflective of our name, Mrs. Ramon focuses on curriculum, teaching methods, and instructional innovation.

An educator through and through, Ms. Ramon began her journey with Antonian as one of our science teachers. Her dedication to her fellow colleagues and students is evident in all that she does.

A product of Catholic education, Ms. Ramon is able to help bridge academic research and spiritual growth. Her goal is to always encourage and provide opportunities for our students and teachers so that they may work closely together - with the end result being that we prepare a well-rounded student for life beyond Antonian.

We thank her for her leadership, grace, and collaboration with our community. We are blessed to count her among our leaders at Antonian.
