Welcome to Aquinas Academy! We are a consolidated Catholic school sponsored by the Diocese of Greensburg and the parishes of the diocese. We respect and recognize the individuality of each student and acknowledge the unique challenges of youth in a
pre-kindergarten through sixth grade structured curriculum.
We believe that Catholic education is a responsibility shared by all members of the family, parish, school, and Diocese of
Greensburg. Our school is centered in Christ's teachings and Catholic doctrine. We believe each student is created with unique talents and intellect, and that our rigorous curriculum challenges students to achieve their potential as they strive for excellence within the
formation of the faith, academics, and success in life. Our students have a right to a safe, positive, nurturing learning environment with mutual respect demonstrated
throughout the school community. Finally, Aquinas Academy will encourage students to serve the Church and the greater community, through lifelong
evangelization.
Graduates of the schools of the Diocese of Greensburg will be:

facts, and knowledge in real world environments.

communicate and innovate. They are flexible, adaptive, collaborative, creative
and globally aware and are able to compete in a global society.

Our school strives to provide families with confidence that their investment in Catholic School education supports complete development and personal success. Aquinas Academy empowers each student with educational fundamentals and Gospel values.
Our school and its predecessors provided our community with an impressive history of academic excellence, dating back to the former St. Benedict School in 1862.
