Advancing Our Mission
Contributions to Saint Thomas Aquinas have a significant impact in providing opportunities for students to develop their God-given spiritual, intellectual, social, and physical potential and help them become life-long learners and responsible citizens guided by Catholic values.
The Advancement Office is responsible for furthering the mission of the school through careful planning and management of all fundraising initiatives, including annual, capital, endowed, and planned gifts, alumni relations, special events and communications.
WE ARE ALL CALLED TO BE SAINTS
It is by living with love and offering Christian witness in our daily tasks that we are called to become SAINTS.

About Hall of Fame
Saint Thomas Aquinas High School established the Hall of Fame Awards Program in 2012 as part of the school's 25th-Year celebration to formally recognize alumni, parents and friends that help define and advance the institution and its mission.
All nominees must demonstrate Catholic values that represent Saint Thomas Aquinas High School and demonstrate our four core values: FAITH, EXCELLENCE, SERVICE, and COMMUNITY.
Nominations for the Saints Hall of Fame can be submitted to Saint Thomas Aquinas High School by any member in or outside of the Saints community.
Hall of Fame recognition happens every three years.
