At St. Thomas More Parish School, developing a child's academic excellence, spiritual growth and personal confidence is our primary focus.
The mission of St. Thomas More Parish 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.
We are a Catholic school offering academic excellence for grades Preschool through 8th grade. Our school day is 8:30am - 3:00pm. Our facility was expanded in 1995 to provide a full size library, science lab, state-of-the-art computer lab, music room and counseling room. Our staff of nine classroom teachers have been joined by music and physical education specialists, a librarian, computer teacher, multi-sensory learning specialist, and a school counselor. Extra-curricular activities include: Drama, Speech and Math Teams, Lego League, Chess, Choir, and Band. We offer before and after school care for students. In 1999, the school became fully accredited by the Northwestern Association of Schools and Colleges, and the Western Catholic Education Association.
