Aquinas Academy is a private coeducational Roman Catholic school located in Livingston, New Jersey that serves students from preschool through eighth grade. The school was founded in 1952 by Monsignor William McCann and the educational guidance of the Sisters of Saint Dominic of Caldwell, New Jersey. Commonly referred to as AQA, it is located on the campus of St. Philomena Parish (a Roman Catholic Church). The school is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.

The Academy is situated on the 30-acre campus of Saint Philomena Parish. The original building, known today as McCann Hall, was formerly the Orange Rest Home. Throughout the years, additional buildings including a gymnasium, were added to the campus.
