PRESENTATION
Director’s Welcome

Welcome to Aquinas American School!
It is a great honor to greet you as the new Head of School of Aquinas American School. Having been part of this community since its foundation, I have witnessed firsthand the dedication, enthusiasm, and spirit that have shaped AAS into the vibrant place it is today. As a founding teacher and one of the founding houseparents at our student residence, I have witnessed our school grow not only in numbers, but in strength of character, purpose, and vision.
Our mission remains rooted in providing a rigorous and inspiring education that honors our cultural and intellectual heritage, while equipping our students to face the challenges of the future with confidence. At Aquinas, we believe that education is more than the transmission of knowledge, it is the formation of individuals who think critically, act with integrity, and pursue their dreams with perseverance.
I deeply value innovation, hard work, and progress. But above all, I believe in working with purpose. Education is a journey of discovery, and our role as a community of teachers, students, and families is to nurture that journey with dedication and joy. Here, every milestone matters, every challenge becomes an opportunity, and every student is encouraged to take ownership of their growth.
As we look to the future, we remain committed to fostering a spirit of resilience and creativity in our students. Whether through academics, the arts, athletics, or service, we guide them to become not only successful professionals but also thoughtful, compassionate human beings.
I warmly invite you to join us in this mission. Together, with perseverance and purpose, we will continue to build a school where dreams take shape, where innovation and tradition walk hand in hand, and where every student is empowered to write their own story.
With gratitude and enthusiasm,
Head of School
