I give St. Thomas More 90%. There are very caring people at this school. I've seen a lot of great things going on at St. Thomas More and I would send my friends here.

Students receive homework nightly and I believe it helps with what is being taught in the class.

St. Thomas More has very qualified teachers that care about students education.

Posted: August 18, 2017

The school does well at developing strong characteristics in the students. They teach students life lessons.

St. Thomas More's leaders are exceptional. Bridget Coates the principal who use to teacher my child many years ago is very king and loving.

I am unaware of any learning differences that St. Thomas More does.

Posted: August 18, 2017

I believe any school you go to you will have issues with bullying. NO St. Thomas More doesn't tolerate it but child are children and they make sure they try and fix the problems.

St. Thomas More Catholic Academy is a great school to send your students. The staff and principal are wonderful. I enjoy their plays and programs they put on for the school.

I am not aware of any bullying issues, however you are going to always have issues that arise in school. You will just have to know how to handle it properly.

I think that the St. Thomas More has a good leadership team. Ms. Bridget Coates the principal is very effective. She's caring and kind to those she comes in contact with. She is always willing to go that extra mile.

Posted: August 7, 2017

I feel that the teachers work with students according to their skills and knowledge. Teachers tutor everyday so students can get the extra help that they need.

St. Thomas More builds strong characteristics in their students. Students are expected to uphold the Mission and Philosophy for St. Thomas More.

Posted: August 7, 2017

Teachers are very big on homework. It is given nightly and is expected to be returned daily. It gives my student the chance to tell me what they have learned in school.

Posted: August 7, 2017

St. Thomas More is an excellent school. I have seen many students come and go. They speak highly of the staff and the great education they are receiving.

I believe this school helps the students develop a better Christian attitude. I love how they have Mass during school hours and they encourage the students and their parents to attend Mass on Sundays.

The teachers I've had interaction with are great! The care about the students and their well-being, as well as their progression in school

St. Thomas More Catholic Academy is a great school! My 15 year old is a graduate and my 13 year is going to the 8th grade this coming school year. My 15 year old had struggles in Math but with constant tutoring, she is now doing well in Math at Arch Bishop Carroll Catholic High School. St. Thomas More has prepared my daughter for high school by giving her and the other students challenging work. The principal, Ms. Bridget Coates, is excellent! Aside from being principal, she is also the Language Arts teacher. She cares for the students and takes a great interest in them. Whenever she sees a student not living up to their potential, she immediately calls the parents in for a meeting so that she can work with the parents to come up with a solution to get the children on track and where they need to be. She has nothing but love and concern for each student there. I've seen her interact with the children and she is AWESOME!!! I attended the school when it was just St. Thomas More Catholic School. It was great then and it's even better now! This is the best school ever for my children. Not only is Ms. Coates great, but her entire staff is awesome! I LOVE this school and I'm sending my grandson there when he is ready for Pre-K!!

The children have homework every single night, which I think is beneficial to them in the long run.

Attending St. Thomas More Catholic Academy was one of the best things that could have happened to me. I learned good study habits which helped me get high grades on tests/quizzes. I also developed my leadership skills by serving as a mentor for an elementary school. Most of all, I learned how to challenge myself without being afraid of failing. Ms. Coates and Father Moore were extremely helpful in working to my fullest potential and to never give up. Ms. Coates and Father Moore are extremely supportive, caring and honest. Without their love and guidance, I am not sure if my time at STM would have been as wonderful, successful and memorable. Go Raiders!

The resources are not available to help students who need an IEP

Posted: March 24, 2017

The principal is overly controlling and there is absolutely no warmth or compassion about her

Posted: March 24, 2017

Teachers are good but many are intimidated by the principal - therefore high turnover

Posted: March 24, 2017

The homework is rote - no creativity

Posted: March 24, 2017

The morale among the teachers at this school is very low. The principal is overly controlling and vindictive both toward teachers and toward certain students. Because of her intimidating approach, teachers are hesitant to be creative or take initiative. The principal can also be hostile toward certain parents as well. There is a high turnover among students at this school; however because the school is located in a neighborhood where there are not a lot of other options, some families choose to put up with the dysfunction. There have been many complaints about the principal to the Catholic Archdiocese but they have chosen to look the other way.

My daughter is planning on a ttending this school next year after reading these profiles I believe that I made a great choice. So far I had been impressed with what they had did as far as enrolling my child into school. I havent yet met the Principal but I heard alot of great things about her.

My son has been attending St. Thomas More Catholic Academy as it is now called since the 2nd grade and he is now in the 5th grade. I have been extremely satisfied with the school, teachers, principle and the curriculum. The teachers are just excellent. They are extremely dedicated to ensuring our kids receive the best education possible. They go above and beyond what is asked of them and they make learning fun and challenging so that the kids want to come to school and they want to learn. My son enjoys attending the school and has such a passion for learning and excelling in school. He set a goal at the start of the school year to get perfect attendance and straight A's and he has accomplished his goals. I am very proud of him and proud to be a part of the STM family.
