I love Aquinas because I have grown in my faith so much and have been challenged in my academics. I have met so many new people who have been so helpful and genuinely care about me and my family. I have been given many opportunities I would have never been able to have else where!

Rigorous academics are good preparation for college! Cliquey atmosphere is less than inclusive/embracing of newcomers or outsiders. I've noticed that it's gotten worse over the years. Booster parents cold-shouldering new people etc. Baseball, tennis, soccer completely ignored. I had one child into f...

Having both attended two fine private high schools, and knowing the other other private schools in our community well, I cannot think of a better match that Aquinas for our children, both from the perspetive of academics/sports and the school culture.
