I think the best part was how close everyone was and how small the classroom size was really helpful. The teachers actually care for the student and wants what's best for them. The worst part was that sometimes I think that if the teacher had your older sibling that the teacher already decided if they liked you or not. The one thing I would like to see change is the food, half the time after eating the food you wouldn't feel good.

Overall, Aquinas High School is an incredible school and the entire Aquinas system is the best option in the LaCrosse area to send your children. The academics are incredible and prepare you very well for not only college but also just life in general. The athletic programs are also very incredible and it shows in the awards and honors the school has won. The only flaws come with any high school and include some teachers not performing to the best of their ability or simply not being fit for the job.

I like how most people have school spirit and have fun. However, the school could spend the money more evenly. Most of the money goes to sports and academics, with hardly any money going to the art and music programs.

I go to Aquinas and its pretty cool but if you just want an easy education you should go somewhere else.

Excellent staff. Wonderful Catholic/Christian environment with exceptional academics. Small school environment allows kids to readily participate in a myriad of school related activities--sports, drama, volunteer, charity, etc.
