Student of the Quarter
The Student of the Quarter program at St. Thomas Aquinas High School was established to highlight student achievement at the school. The goal of the program is to recognize those students who truly represent the school's mission statement, and who embody what it means to be a well-balanced individual.
Students are nominated for this award by faculty and staff. At the end of each quarter, a selection committee meets to review the nominations and choose the students who best represent the meaning of "being an Aquinas student".
The committee looks at a wide range of criteria:
- Academic Record
- Disciplinary Record
- Community Service Record
- Outstanding Individual Achievement
- Extra-Curricular Involvement
- Leadership
- Attitude and Outlook
- Day-to-Day Interactions with Peers
- Willingness to Help Others
Two students from each grade are chosen per quarter. Students may receive multiple nominations, but may not win the award multiple times.
