Who We Are

Saint Thomas Academy is a place where boys harness their greatest intellectual, athletic, spiritual and leadership potential. Here, they can explore and become the young men they are meant to be. It’s the origin of a life-changing bond of brotherhood your son will carry with him for life.

What we instill in our sons will be the foundation upon which they build their future.

Faith

Faith is a grounding principle in a young man's life and fosters selflessness and compassion. As such, we encourage boys to explore and develop their faith through our community service, theology coursework and Catholic tenets.

Excellence

Whether on the field, court or ice, or in the classroom, lab or studio, cadets consistently demonstrate excellence developed through unwavering commitment, practice, teamwork and instruction by the finest coaches and faculty who excel at teaching boys.

Integrity

A character trait can only be instilled, not taught, integrity defines Saint Thomas Academy cadets.

Respect

Unquantifiable on college entrance exams, the development of a deep respect for authority and others is inherent in our military leadership program. 

Our Mission

Our mission - to develop boys into men of character - is our promise to our students, our families, our community and the world.  We accomplish this through the transformative power of an educational and life experience deeply rooted in Catholic faith and traditions, academic excellence, military leadership, and an all-male environment.

Saint Thomas Academy is proud to be one of the only all-boys Catholic military schools serving boys from middle school through high school in the greater Minneapolis–St. Paul area. We are a private high school and private middle school with a record of character, service, and college preparation.

The relationships I formed in Middle School with my teachers and the class activities we did, were still talked about in high school.

Saint Thomas Academy is the best thing that has ever happened to me.  It is a home away from home where I can share a special bond with my brothers through sports, activities, faith and a military aspect that teaches us how to be gentlemen.
