Tuition and assistance
STM believes all students should have access to a high-quality Catholic education.
We encourage all families in need to apply for tuition assistance. Our need-based financial aid is determined by a third party system. Admission decisions are made separately from tuition assistance determinations.
This 2023-24 school year, 20% percent of our student body received over $484,500 in need-based financial aid.
What makes one school stand out from another? Our graduates reflect the true value of a Saint Thomas More Catholic School education. We aspire for our students to be deeply rooted in the following ideals upon graduation.
- Take intentional responsibility to continue growth in body, mind, and spirit;
- Be intellectually curious and take ownership and pride in their learning;
- Understand Catholic doctrine, find God everywhere, and celebrate diversity;
- Be joyfully compassionate in building and understanding their relationship with self, others, their community, and God; and
- Recognize those in need, empathize with them, and act on that need.
