I am thrilled to be a part of the Saint Thomas Aquinas Catholic School staff and family. As a product of Christian and Public school education, I can speak from experience about the moral, spiritual, academic, and personal benefits of attending Catholic school. After a priest’s homily on the importance of Catholic school education, my son turned to my husband and said, "I need to go to catholic school so I can be closer to God and be a better boy." Inspired by the wonderful family atmosphere and the gospel that guides us all, my commitment and desire is to create an atmosphere to help each student discover, develop, and embrace his or her own creativity during these very important formative years, so they can grow into the confident children of God they want to be.
