The Curriculum

St. Thomas Aquinas strives to provide a well-rounded, holistic education for its students. Core subjects include religion, reading, math, language arts, science, and social studies.

The curriculum is formed according to federal, state and archdiocesan guidelines. It is adapted to the particular needs of the students in light of the goals of Saint Thomas Aquinas Parish.

In the primary grades, theme based lessons encourage the development of basic skills and competencies. Direct instruction coupled with rich, hands on experiences set young learners on an eager path of self discovery in their thirst for the truths of our faith and our world.

The middle grades continue their pursuit of wisdom with direct instruction and a more cooperative learning based approach. A greater focus on content enables the students to understand and integrate more complex knowledge.
