We have sent our children to several schools, but we landed at Aquinas because of the academic rigor and engaged educators and staff. Most importantly to us is the focus on raising virtuous and faithful students. We are so pleased to have our children learning and maturing into educated and well rounded young adults at Aquinas Academy.
