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.

St. Thomas has provided my children with an excellent education preparing them for their next step in life. The faculty is excellent and go above and beyond everyday. Students are better people for having attended St. Thomas.

I started my time at St. Thomas proud to go there and enjoying school. However, the more I progressed during the four years, the less proud I was, particularly with the end of the 2023 school year. The school was not a welcoming environment, and the majority of the teachers that were safe spaces for countless students left or were fired. I would not recommend sending a student to this school.

Therefore, we put a great deal of consideration into our high school search. We toured PEA, Gov’s...

When I first started my journey at STA it was a great community and overall supportive. This was before the administration decided to fire half the staff and ask others to resign. STA is no longer the great community it once was. We are constantly disrespected by faculty and staff everyday and treat...

The abhorrent cruelty shown to staff and students is the antithesis to a Catholic education. This school prioritizes money over kindness, money over integrity. Do NOT recommend.
