This school is preparing us for college and the next level of education. The worst part is probably the amount of students in the school.

The best parts of Aquinas Institute would be the community. As compared to public schools in the area, Aquinas is prestigious and has a close-knit feel. The academics are very good for the most part, but there are some teachers that I struggle with as a student. I feel that this school has taught me to be more mature and professional, and has me ready to start college without any nerves.
