I am an alumni of STM and can proudly say that I had an amazing seven years with the school. They had a rough few years, but are rebuilding their school nicely with their new principal. I strongly recommend this school if you want your child to have many learning opportunities and be included in a loving community. (:

The Principal should retire. Has no credibility as she focuses on Teachers that brown nose her style of Administration. Teacher turnover is outlandish

STM is a hidden gem. We transferred from a school that had every resource for our child with specific learning disability, but our child was unhappy and did not enjoy coming to school. We made the choice to leave. Our child was met with compassion, personal support from teachers, a supportive staff that was available to hear regular updates on our child that did not require an appointment to be seen (unlike our previous school). Personal and regular progress reports from our child’s teachers. We sought many surrounding schools but when we shared that our child has an IEP we were told that there are simply not enough resources. STM said the same thing but offered to review our child’s IEP and set up a program that honestly outlined what was in their capacity to support our child with. The effort won us over, but why we stayed is year after year, the compassion and one on one support our child has received. No school system is perfect, our years at STM has not been perfect, but its proven and continues to be the best fit for our child.

The worst decision I ever made for my child. Be forewarned. This is the worst school environment in the world for any parent and their child. Save your money and time and run.

I am very pleased with the education my children have been receiving at St. Thomas More. The teachers really care about the students and go above and beyond to help students succeed. I know my children will be well prepared for high school.

This school only cares about the money and not the education of the student. Unfortunately! Has never came through with their promises.

I currently am a student at St. Thomas More and have found that my school is preparing me for the many challenges that will come in the future. I also have grown closer God both spiritually and intellectually. The teachers work hard to keep us safe and healthy, they also work hard to help the student see their full potential. Like high school students, we read challenging books like shakespeare and go see plays to give a new vision of the story. Being a student I fully recommend any parent to send their child here because we will welcome them with open arms.

I am also a student who is currently attending St. Thomas More. The teachers here are strict, but very loving and look out for you. They do there best to educate their students and allow them to rise high above their expectations. I'm not going to doubt it, St. Thomas More is a small school, but i have met so many people that i have built an amazing friendship with. Yes, I highly recommend this school! (:

My child started school here this year and I am very pleased with our choice! The principals are very welcoming and the teachers go above and beyond and really care about the children. My child has exceeded in every subject above grade level and is challenged everyday! I look forwarded to the years ahead at St. Thomas More!

I am a Saint Thomas More graduate and I can honestly say that this school gave me a great educational foundation. The teachers were great and they showed that they cared. I graduated from college with straight As and I am now finishing up my graduate program, still will straight As. This school prepared me academically and taught me great morals. When I have kids of my own, I will be sending them to STM.

BAD SCHOOL! 1. Why do they have the parents sign a paper that states, the parents are solely responsible for your child's education NOT THE SCHOOL? 2. Why does the school enrollment start at about 35-kids and drops to about 1/2 that by eighth grade? 3. Why do so many eighth graders need to be tutors to pass math? In my opinion, the only thing the school cares about is your money not your kids.
