St. Anthony School opened its door with two grades in September 1958. As the population of immigrants increased in Everett, each year additional grades were added, so that by September 1963, there were eight grades. Eventually, the Kindergarten and Preschool were opened. Originally, the Franciscan Sisters of Alleghany, New York, staffed St. Anthony School. Today, the faculty consists of lay teachers. Since its inception, the school's population has changed and now reflects the diverse population living in Everett and surrounding communities. However, the primary focus of the school continues to be to educate all students, regardless of economic status, religious and/or racial diversity.

"I love my Catholic School because everything is so different here and the public schools never teach the amazing math skills, writing skills, and grammar skills that we learn! I love waking up in the morning and just knowing I will have a great day. When I went to the public school I woke up and felt sadness and then going to school seeing so many bullies around us. Here, I know there are no bullies and I will never be bullied like I was in the public school. I love the kind of work we do here instead of the public school because we never got any projects to do there and we always did the same work over and over again. We have done so many projects here and they are all so fun! I love this school and I never plan on leaving! This school has Faith, Excellence, and Service. The students are super amazing and when I came in the first day, I was welcomed in with opened arms!"
