STA Counseling Philosophy and Vision
The mission of the Saint Thomas Aquinas Regional Catholic High School Counseling Department is to support and empower all students through a Christ-centered program rooted in Gospel values and the Dominican tradition of Truth. Through academic, social-emotional, and college and career guidance, we promote the development of the whole person and help students reach their God-given potential for success in college, career, and life.
Vision:
The vision of the STA Counseling Department is that every student will graduate as a confident, faith-filled leader who seeks Truth, serves others, and makes ethical decisions guided by Gospel values. Students will be prepared to thrive academically and personally, pursuing their future with purpose, excellence, and compassion.on
