PTO Welcome to Parents
Link to the PTO page
Dear Parents,
Thank you for visiting our website. If there are any questions unanswered after cruising around here, please do not hesitate to contact the office - or me!
You probably have an idea of what a wonderful place St. Thomas More is, what a great, Christ-centered education our kids get, what a great group of parents we have. If you don’t know that yet, you will likely soon find out. Our faculty and staff is the best in the business! Many of our teachers have been at St. Thomas More for many years, providing stability and constancy for our children as they move through the school. And we families form one big, happy family who loves, supports and celebrates each other.
As a parent of two kids who started at STM in kindergarten and are now in 4th grade and 6th grade, I have come to know that we, as parents with similar goals and aspirations for our children, rely on each other for moral, spiritual and emotional support. As a group, we come together to provide our faculty and staff with the same support.
The PTO is a fundraising organization and the funds we raise go toward many things. Our funds provide the Faculty and Staff Christmas bonuses, contribute to the mortgage on the Notre Dame de Namur Center, our beautiful gymnasium, music and art facility; provide continuing education for faculty; and upgrade technology needs around campus. We raise these funds through many vehicles: the Rock-n-Run,
the Read-A-Thon, the annual Greenery Sale, and our Auction held every Spring. There are other ways to raise funds along the way but these are our main breadwinners.
The PTO’s main message is and has always been: do what you can to help, and what feels right and comfortable for you. We do need lots of support to make things move smoothly, but we know that everything doesn’t suit everyone. There always seem to be enough helping hands to get every job done.
Thanks again for visiting the STM website. Let us know if you have any questions or comments.
Peace,
Jenny Costantino
