TSAS TESTIMONIALS

“The St. Anthony School took in our son, who suffered through the public school setting, and encouraged and supported and loved him into a kid ready to take on the world. Our son walked in with no self confidence, felt he was stupid and not “normal” and the St. Anthony School teachers, counselors and staff gave my son the opportunity to prove to himself that he is smart and can do/be anything he wants. My son told me that he felt “home” and that people there ‘get him’. The experience saved my son.”

“The St. Anthony School was a life saver for us. Our daughter thrived socially, emotionally and behaviorally over the four years she attended. Public school was not suited for her and The St. Anthony School helped us get her back on track and happy. I wish we would have moved her sooner than High School. Earning points for Level 4 activities helped keep her focused and boost her confidence by achieving small goals. The staff is very patient and caring. The staff to student ratio is beyond ideal and allows more one on one interaction. I love how the school focuses on all aspects of the students life, not just academics. The school has also helped prepare her for life after graduation and offers a transition program for those students that are not ready for the real world.”

“After trying a number of other schools, we finally found the one that had the right structure and caring, talented staff our son needed to thrive.... He has a number of true and good friends, he has excelled in his schoolwork, he had a ton of fun on the soccer team, and now he is working a part time job and getting ready to enroll in Dual Enrollment courses with Dallas County Community College. If your child is struggling and you haven`t found a school that provides structure while flexing to meet their specific needs, you owe it to yourself and your kid to check out TSAS. You`ll be thankful that you did.”

“We are very pleased with our experience at The St. Anthony School. They provide an environment that focuses on every aspect of the individual student. We have appreciated the small setting. It allows teachers to truly know your child. If there are areas of concern that need extra attention, they are able to address it quickly. All of the staff and administration work together to communicate how best to help your child become successful and give the whole family a level of support you will not find elsewhere. Our child has flourished and we have seen an enormous amount of growth and confidence during our time here.”

“The dynamics at home certainly changed as our daughter’s school experience was so positive and a source of pride and belonging rather than a constant source of anxiety, pressure and feeling alienated. Her brother and sister would recommend the St Anthony School as much as we would. Finding a school that is a perfect fit for your child is one of the biggest blessings we could receive. The only thing better would have been to find The St Anthony School several years earlier.”

“At St Anthony’s my son had the benefit of small classes, a lot of individual attention and a flexibility of approach that was essential to his success. The school has a philosophy that each child is different and that there is always a way to teach your child even if the way that is successful is not the conventional approach. They value the partnership between parents and school and there is constant communication which helped us with consistent rules and expectations. I cannot adequately express how grateful I am to all the staff at the St Anthony School without whom my son would not be entering college now.”

“We immediately felt at ease when we toured The St. Anthony School. The campus is beautiful, the staff is kind and more than qualified, and the classroom size is perfect. The daily family/staff communication ensures that our son is set up to succeed while still being challenged. We didn’t know how he would do transitioning to a new school, but the transition was smooth thanks to the guidance and coaching from the teachers and staff. He genuinely loves attending school. It’s also encouraging to know that Momentum is available as a post graduation option. We are thankful for the confidence, education, and positive role models that The St. Anthony School has provided our family.”

“The staff is amazing at guiding the students in their school day, and are so very willing to work with families to help guide the students’ in their home lives as well. In order for children - all children - to be successful in school, students, teachers and parents must be united as one team to work together to help children achieve their goals and succeed. At TSAS, each child has a village in the administration and teachers.”

“Our son was struggling in public school even with modifications. He started St Anthony’s with low self-confidence and behavioral issues. In his 2 years at TSAS, he completely turned around. He is confident, happy, socially successful and academically on target. We are so grateful to TSAS for nurturing and supporting our kiddo. The structure and staff are geared to work with kids who struggle, and their methods do so much to build up the child’s sense of self worth and responsibility. TSAS gave us our son back!”
