Saint Thomas' all-boys culture makes our school one of a kind. It really gives all of us students a chance to be ourselves. We are like no other school in the country. STA has some of the most talented students in the country, whether it's in athletics, academics, or extra-curricular.

Saint Thomas Academy is a very unique learning environment. Being an all boys school teaches you new attributes that otherwise would be difficult to learn. STA teaches you leadership through the rigerous military leadership class requirement. Saint Thomas also prepares their students well for college and makes sure that they are ready and prepared through their college prep pillar. The thing that I will remember most and that will last well into adulthood for me is the bonds that I have formed with my classmates.

Our son attended public schools (Top 2 district in the state of MN) until 6th grade and started at St Thomas Academy beginning of 7th grade. We could not be happier with St. Thomas and can’t even compare to the quality of education he was getting where he was. I have no doubt that in addition to us...
