Mission

The mission of St. Thomas More School is to provide for our community affordable access to quality education opportunities, both spiritually and academically, within a loving Catholic Christian environment.

The principles we are committed to are:

  • To develop within students a deep understanding and love of their Catholic faith and the Christian principles and practices upon which it is based. This faith will be celebrated through prayer and liturgical participation.
  • To provide excellence in academics, physical education and the arts.
  • To develop within each student a positive self-image and a sense of personal responsibility.
  • To instill within our students a conviction that they are members of a loving, supportive Christian Community and an awareness of the responsibilities and duties that membership requires.
  • To help students to respect and appreciate one another’s ethnic diversity, differing learning styles and special learning needs.
  • Parents, parish members, teachers and students will share the responsibility for this loving and rewarding task.

Philosophy & Goal

St. Thomas More School exists in order to create a Catholic Christian educational community where human knowledge, enlightened and enlivened by faith, is shared by teachers, students, and parents in a spirit of freedom and love.
