About us

Saint Thomas the Apostle school welcomed its first students in September of 1956. Five Sisters of the Holy Names taught Kindergarten through grade five in temporaryclassrooms in the basement of the "old" church and a neighboring home until the school building was completed in January of 1957.

Through the years, our original school building was updated with new lights, new windows and new furniture. In 1996, the parish established a needs assessment committee and conducted a pledge drive to raise funds for our ambitious building and renovation program for all the parish facilities. On March 3, 1997 ground was broken for the first part of the project, the school. The entire school was renovated, a kitchen and cafetorium, a computer lab, an addition to the library, three classrooms and storage areas were added. Shortly after the students returned in September 1997, Bishop Howard J. Hubbard blessed the "new School." While we are proud of our building, we are prouder still of the close to 3000 students who have filled the classrooms for the past 49 years. We are proud of the dedicated faculty: the clergy, sisters, religious, and laymen and laywomen who have imparted a Catholic faith centered and outstanding academic preparation to our students.
