The mission of St. Thomas' Episcopal is to form honorable men and women through a classical education grounded in a Christ-centered world view. The school offers an acceleration education providing a solid foundation that prepares students for college and for life. While boys and girls are together in kindergarten and high school, in 1st through 8th we offer single-sex classrooms. Our fines arts program includes our world-champion bagpipe band and dancers, as well as choir, strings and theater. Our mock trial team and yearbook program are nationally recognized and popular electives in high school.
