Serving With Wisdom
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to spiritual growth and social responsibility. At St. Thomas Aquinas High School, our students build their faith through active service—volunteering at soup kitchens, food pantries, houses of worship, schools, hospitals, and nursing homes—serving both our community and those in need locally. Charitable works and direct service are essential responses to our Catholic faith1, reminding us that every act of kindness reflects our connection to the most vulnerable among us. When we integrate reflection on Catholic social teaching and social justice into our service experiences, we not only transform the lives of those we help but also illuminate our own paths. As St. Thomas Aquinas reminds us, “Love takes up where knowledge leaves off.”
Serve With Wisdom—together, we exemplify that charity and service are the very heartbeat of our faith.

Freshman students are required to complete 20 hours of service per quarter and at last 10 per quarter must be active service. Service hours account for 10% of freshman students' Theology grade each quarter.
Service opportunities are announced in homeroom announcements, during religion classes, in the Principal's Newsletter and on the Donation Programs page.
If a student completes their service hours outside of St. Thomas Aquinas, they must complete a Service Timesheet and return it to room 106.
