The Aquinas Institute of Rochester is a co-educational Catholic school in Rochester, New York, established in 1902. The Aquinas Institute was founded as the co-educational Cathedral Business School and in 1913 became Rochester Catholic High School, an all-male high school which it remained until 1982 when, after the closure of St. Agnes (an all girls school), Aquinas once again became co-ed. It is located within City of Rochester. It has stood at its current location on Dewey Avenue since 1925. Over 19,000 have graduated since the school opening.

Buildings on campus

The main school building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Wegman – Napier Building, an extension of the main school building, houses science labs for biology and chemistry classes, as well as a renovated gym. Aquinas' biology labs were refurbished in 2007, and a 30000square feet field house was built in 2008.

Aquinas constructed an on-campus stadium in 2005, sponsored by and named the Wegmans Sports Complex. The new stadium was built twenty years after its previous football stadium Holleder Memorial Stadium was demolished in 1985.
