Principal’s Welcome 

Welcome to St. Thomas the Apostle School!

My name is Dr. Tricia Holmquist and I am honored to serve as principal. St. Thomas the Apostle School has a rich history in Los Angeles, dating back to 1903. We serve children from Transitional Kindergarten (4 yrs. old) through 8th grade. If you are looking for a Catholic education for your child, a place where your child has a home away from home, and a place where children can learn and play in a safe faith-filled environment, then we are the place for you. 

In 2024, our school went through a rigorous accreditation process through the Western Catholic Educational Association. This process ensures there is continuous school improvement with an emphasis on faith formation, excellence, and school vitality. I am proud to say that St. Thomas the Apostle received a full 6-year accreditation. We are blessed by the dedication of the principals, teachers, students, parents, parish and community members that have helped support our school over the years.

We work closely with our parish to ensure our children and their families have the love and support of a large Catholic family. On behalf of Fr. Mario, we welcome you to St. Thomas the Apostle School and Parish Community. We invite you to get involved within our parish. We have an active parish with many different ministries waiting to welcome you.

Thank you for your time and interest in St. Thomas the Apostle. We look forward to meeting you in person.

Blessings,

Dr. Tricia Holmquist
