    About St. Thomas Aquinas

    St. Thomas Aquinas opened in 1947, originally serving as an extension of Sacred Heart Cathedral families.

    The school combines Catholic formation with academics, arts and athletics across lower- and upper-school divisions.

    How the school fits into a Dallas home search

    Lakewood, Lower Greenville and nearby East Dallas neighborhoods can provide practical access to the school while remaining close to downtown.

    Families relocating from the Park Cities or Preston Hollow should compare cross-city drive patterns at actual school-hour traffic times.

    Relocating around an independent school

    Private-school enrollment does not work like a public attendance boundary. A family can compare several neighborhoods and choose the home that best balances school access, work commute, housing style, other children's schools and daily life. The best answer is often a corridor rather than one ZIP code.

    Stonebriar does not represent the school and does not set or interpret its admission rules. Confirm current admission, calendar, transportation and campus information directly with the school before making a housing decision.

    Move timing for school families

    When possible, plan packing and move-day access around school orientation, the first week of classes, major travel and closing dates. For high-rise or apartment destinations, reserve elevators and loading access early. For estate or large-home moves, separate the family's immediate school-week essentials from the main household shipment so uniforms, devices, medications and daily-use items stay accessible.
