St. Thomas the Apostle School: Achieve Excellence, Success in Faith-Based Education, Focus on Academic Success 

               Fly Like A Hawk!

Welcome to St. Thomas the Apostle School, a school focused on strong academics, faith-based learning and social emotional development. Our goal is to assist each child in achieving their highest range of academic excllence. Whether the student be in Pre-School, Kindergarten or in 8th Grade, our goal remains the same. We focus on the needs of all learners and utilize the tools at our disposal to enahnce all learning experiences. 

We are a physical school building of over 40,000 square feet. An illustrious outer campus which allows for learning in the envionrment around us, in this day and age it allows for wellness and mask breaks for all in our school. We are fortunate to have a gymnasium, dinning hall, library, media center, and state of the art science lab all on site in their own distinguished areas. This large physical space allows us to fully embody the levels of teaching that we strive for each and every day. 

I am fortunate and proud to say that we have a skilled, caring, and extremely dedicated faculty and staff. Each of our educators focuses on each of their students to ensure that they are mastering their core subjects. We work closely with the Archidocese of Newark Schools Office, The Bloomfield Board of Education, and the Bloomfield Board of Health to ensure that we are gearing our attention to all facets of education. 

We understand that this time in our world is unknown by everyone, and we do all that we can to maintain levels of normalcy in the classrooms and the students day to day activities. The safety of all remains at the forefront of all that we do as a school community. Our relationship with our parish is stronger than ever, the relationship with the community around us continues to strengthen. St. Thomas the Apostle School is a place where children come to develop knowledge, families come to join a community, and all come to be a part of our wonderful traditions. 

I would like to thank everyone again for all that you are doing to keep everyone safe. Thank you to everyone for all that you do to make STA a Home.

God Bless,

Mr. Petrillo, M.Ed.
