1965 unfolded a new horizon among the Spanish Dominican fathers with the founding of an exclusive school for boys. It was built on a beautifully landscaped three-hectare lot at 183 F. It was named after the brilliant saint, St. Thomas Aquinas also considered the patron saint of all catholic schools. Like all Dominican institutions in the Philippines, Aquinas School has as its main concern the total formation of its students: the harmonious development of its physical, intellectual and moral endowment to the utmost of their capabilities, preparing them for a mature life in freedom and responsibility. In 1969, the government extended full recognition of the schoolβs complete Elementary and High School courses. In 1976, Aquinas School was allowed to operate a co-educational Nursery School. It was at that time when the Kindergarten-Preparatory classes, which had been in existence since 1965, moved to a new site within the campus equipped with bigger and modern facilities. In 1977, a multi-purpose building was added which houses the Science, Computer and Speech Laboratories, the CAT, Outreach, Parentsβ Council offices, the Guidance Center and the gymnasium to better serve its growing population. During its silver anniversary in 1990, the new administration building and the covered gallery and shelters were constructed to meet the expanding requirements of operation. In 1977, the auditorium came into existence where the fitness and recreation centers and function hail are located. The football field serves as avenues where the students can play games of boysβ interest. At present, the well-equipped school libraries are designed to confront the challenges posed by the very demanding world. The religious atmosphere provided by the centuries old Sanctuario del Santo Cristo and the Dominican Priory of the Holy Cross contribute significantly to the moral and spiritual growth of Aquinas students.
