Antonian Fund the Need and Tuition Raffle Remains Open |
|
|
|
Thank you to our generous parents for making the 11th Annual Heritage Gala such a success so far! Your gifts will continue to provide an excellent education for our students.
While we always appreciate your support of Antonian, we appreciate it even more this year since we were unable to come together in person for the Gala. We reimagined our signature fundraising event and tried to replicate our program through a series of events throughout the year to ensure everyone still has the opportunity to participate in fundraising elements safely from the comfort of their own home.

Tuition raffle ticket purchases and Fund the Need donations can still be made by visiting this link below.

It's A Great Day To Be An Apache |
|
Congratulations to our dual/credit Engineering I students! Through the scoring of their portfolios, it has been determined that our students have been admitted to the dual enrollment program at the University of Texas at Austin.
Applications are scored much like the AP exams with 5 being the highest score. 27% of the students scored a perfect 5, 42% scored a 4, and the remaining students scored with a passing grade of 3.
The application process was based on the work completed in a unit of our Engineer Your World high school course taught by Lorene Toscano. Students wrote a 2,000-4,000 word portfolio addressing certain questions about the engineering design process. We are proud of our students and thank Mrs. Toscano for her hard work in leading our students during this time.

Faculty Highlight: Mrs. Lorene Toscano |
|
|
|
Our Engineering program at Antonian has continued to grow leaps and bounds over the last few years. Mrs. Toscano has been at the helm of these great changes by instilling a drive and passion in her students. She is in her 20th year as a member of our community.
Her passion for teaching others does not stop with her own students. Mrs. Toscano also serves as the moderator for Antonian's National Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta Math Honor Society.
Most recently, her students were accepted into the dual enrollment program at the University of Texas at Austin. We are proud to have educators such as Mrs. Toscano forming our students by instilling a passion for and awareness of opportunities available to them.
