Every year at graduation, families approach me and state Aquinas is a real family experience. At Aquinas, relationships with faculty and friends are gifts that last a lifetime. Students can always find something they would like to be involved with here whether it is dance, art, music, clubs or competing as a member of our individual and athletic team programs.

The resources and facilities at Aquinas offer students state-of-the-art education in a traditional and historical setting. With over $20 million in facility improvements since 2003, including the latest in computer technology, a new fine arts center, library and a new athletic complex, the campus at Aquinas has been modernized to enhance our students’ experience.

I invite you to learn more about Aquinas Institute by reviewing our strategic plan, Proud of our Past, Focused on our Future.
