A formative education fueled by Catholic values. We are STA.
Last day of school! We're going to miss you all and we can't wait to see some of you through the summer and the rest of you in the fall.
Congratulations to our STA Students for their placement in the Elks Americanism Essay Contest! This year’s essay theme was "What Makes You Proud of America?"
What a memorable evening we shared at THE GREAT GALA Dinner-Dance-Auction. It was a wonderful evening filled with great friends, delicious food, amazing auction items, and fun dancing! Our goal is to raise funds to build a new full-use facility on our grass field, to replace our small “Snack Shack.” The new facility would have a kitchen and outdoor dining patio! We hope to break ground by 2020. We are excited to report our GROSS TOTAL from our GALA evening is $115,000! This is a great start towards the funds needed to complete our project. Have questions about how you can help? Wish to donate? Contact the school office at 619-583-6270.
This month we're highlighting our Art teacher, Mr. Naughton! Thank you for instilling in our students the spirit of creativity.
STA is fortunate to have such a talented/gifted instructor who loves to share his gift with the students.
We may not be there anymore but my girls have taken what they learned from Mr Naughton and they still use it today. He is an amazing teacher!
The Best!!! 👏
