About Saint Anthony of Padua School

St. Anthony of Padua School is a fully accredited parish Catholic school in Falls Church, Virginia, serving students from preschool (age 2 1/2) through 8th grade within the Diocese of Arlington. Founded in 1952, it offers a faith-centered learning environment with small class sizes and a curriculum set by the Diocese of Arlington Office of Catholic Schools.

The school runs an inclusion program that gives students with mild to moderate intellectual and developmental disabilities access to an individualized Catholic education, with a stated goal of integrating each student as fully as possible into the life of the school community. Special education teachers collect data, design school-based interventions, work with individuals and small groups, and assist classroom teachers with modifications to assignments and assessments. Academic interventionists and resource teachers support students with specific deficits in reading or math and coach classroom teachers on implementing accommodations. Support is provided according to the resources available, and parents are treated as part of the support team.

St. Anthony's is accredited through the Virginia Catholic Education Association and is a member of the Virginia Council on Private Education and the National Catholic Education Association. School hours run 8:00 am to 3:20 pm, with optional extended day until 5:30 pm and a summer camp program.
