Families Enrolling with St. Thomas Aquinas Academy
Through the assessment and curriculum planning conference your advisor will help select the books best suited for your student's skill level. You may be advised to use books other than those on the list recommended for your student's grade level.

We strongly advise our families to wait to order books until after the curriculum planning conference so you can be sure to get the appropriate levels. This is especially important since St. Thomas Aquinas Academy is not a one-size-fits-all program. Your advisor will help tailor our program to meet your family's specific academic needs, not just assign a grade level and ISBN numbers to match. It'll be worth the wait!
