St Thomas Aquinas Catholic School is a fully accredited elementary/middle school with approximately 405 students in Pre-K - 8th grade. With two classrooms per grade, the school provides an environment rich in academic, spiritual and emotional learning.

The Curriculum consists of a basic course load, designed to provide an effective foundation for higher learning. With a strong focus on language arts, math, and science, the curriculum integrates religion, humanities, history, and foreign languages into the daily routine. Physical education, art, and computer science classes are spread throughout the week. Upper grades are departmentalized, with an advanced track in the math department.

Kindergarten students participate in a full school day, comprised of a highly successful phonics based, pre-reading program, an introduction to math concepts, simple science units, field trips, music, art, and a basic introduction to religious education. Kindergartners are promoted to first grade with a high level of reading readiness.
