There’s nothing like our whole school coming together, K to 12. Honoring one of our traditions at Opening Mass today, we closed by singing "Let’s Go Forth". That moment of joy and connection - hearing our students singing and clapping along - always reminds me why I love leading this school. What a blessing! 🙏 Mrs. Schrock #WeAreCTR #LeadershipLens

Help us welcome our new teachers! Mr. Jones Hi, I’m Mr. Jones, the new elementary P.E. teacher here at St. Anthony’s. After spending the last few years teaching at the Drumheller Institution, I’m excited for the opportunity to return to teaching in my area of specialization, Physical Education. In addition to teaching, I have had the opportunity to work in Emergency Services with both the Fire Department and EMS, and I will continue serving in those roles as well. My first few days at St. Anthony’s have been wonderful. The staff, students, and parents have all been incredibly welcoming. As someone who was born and raised in Drumheller, it is especially meaningful to reconnect with the community. I’m looking forward to a fantastic year and am grateful to be part of the St. Anthony’s family. Mrs. Russell After teaching every elementary grade, except Grade 3, my experience will now be complete!! I have been subbing at St Anthony’s for several years, so I am a familiar face! I have lived in Drumheller for 11 years and have 2 grandsons attending St Anthony’s. I am very blessed to be able to join the super staff at St Anthony’s for the 2026/2027 school year.
