St. Thomas the Apostle School - Join our Family !

St. Thomas the Apostle School
St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic School is nestled in the heart of Peoria Heights residential area.  The school and parish's partnership with students and parents contributes effectively in the development of the whole child---preschool through eighth grade.  The blend of religious formation, academics, fine arts, and extracurricular opportunities offers a well-balanced experience.  Identifying and nurturing each child's gifts and needs is a main objective in conjunction with the academic/religious learning; The ultimate goal is to cultivate the full potential of each student in preparation for a successful secondary education experience.
      St. Thomas School is strongly committed to continued school improvement as is evident by the quality assurance review through Advanced ED, Advancing Excellence in Education that was conducted in February 2010.  St. Thomas was identified as a provider of quality student learning which met all conditions for full accreditation by the North Central Association.
