[edit] Academics
St. Anthony traditionally does very well in standardized tests in the state and is quite successful academically. Newsweek ranked the school #429 in their "List of the 1200 Top High Schools in America."[1] Its academic teams also do well. St. Anthony won the 2004, 2006, and 2007 AA knowledge bowl competitions and the 2005 Minnesota Science Bowl competition. The 2007-2008 Science Bowl team advanced to the state competition. The Medtronic - St Anthony RoboHuskie Team 2574 robotics entry in the 2007-2008 US FIRST Robotics Challenge earned "Highest Rookie Seed" honors at the Milwaukee Regional Event.

[edit] Athletics
St. Anthony’s team mascot is the Huskie. The team won the 2006 State 2A baseball championship. Baseball games are played at Palm field, and football games at Denison Field.
St. Anthony recently rejoined the Tri-Metro Conference after competing for several years in the Metro Alliance, returning after the latter disbanded in 2005. They compete in most sports at the 2A level.
The school is not large enough to support all sports on its own, so boys’ hockey is concurrent with Irondale High School and girls’ hockey, co-ed soccer, co-ed nordic skiing, wrestling, and co-ed track are joint-teams with Spring Lake Park High School.
St. Anthony’s main rivals are Columbia Heights High School and DeLaSalle High School.
