"My boys love their school! They are proud to be STM knights and have many opportunities to let their knight pride shine, on the basketball court and in the classroom. They have opportunities to be involved with religious services even while they remain virtual. The school has integrated at home and in person students beautifully as they work on group projects together. I love hearing them connect and collaborate with their peers over google meet calls, they are connected even though they are apart. If I ever have a question or concern I feel open to email their teachers to discuss and collaborate with them for my children`s not only academic but social needs. The teachers/staff/principal remain flexible and adaptable during these ever changing times."-Proud St. Thomas More parent, Amy TrescottSt. Thomas More Catholic School

I have been quite pleased with the progress of my children over the past few years. They have excelled in their academics, their growth as young Christians and have continued their interest in extracurricular activities. With limitations of COVID, they remained balanced in their outside interests with their academic expectations. Teachers prepare the students for the quizzes, tests and quarterly requirements. The students excel in their standardized tests. Those who are not as exemplary are given the help needed to assist in improvement of the child. I am appreciative of teachers, staff and administration's efforts to adjust to the various challenges that arose during this pandemic.
