Overall I had a good experience at Saint Thomas. I met a lot of really good people and felt completely prepared for college.

St. Thomas is a small school that delivers big. Its teachers and staff are amazing. It offers so much to its students. It has both a thriving theater and sports community. The staff go out of their way to provide a well rounded experience to its students. Winter term really enhances the overall high school experience. We highly recommend STA.

Well prepared for college years. School policy has changed over the years and is less tolerant to some types of students.

I bought all new uniforms but as everyone knows New England weather can turn on a dime. The kids can’t wear coats or jackets to school as...
