STM Principal STM PastorMs. Kristen Thome Fr. Hai Dang
Mission Statement
We, the pastor, staff and parents of St. Thomas More Parish School,
are committed to developing the minds, hearts and souls of our students.
By planting faith-filled seeds of good habits,
we open our students’ minds to knowledge, their hearts to service
and their souls to the beauty of God’s creation.
Statement of Philosophy
We believe that each child can be formed into a responsible individual
with values rooted in Christian precepts. We strive to maintain a profound
sense of purpose to build within each student a deep respect for God,
self, others, and property. All school personnel, families and students are
challenged to lead, teach and learn the way of accepting personal
responsibility for one’s own actions and to grow in wisdom, age and grace
before God and one another. The goal of the St. Thomas More Parish
School experience is to open the mind to knowledge, the heart to service
and the soul to God’s presence in creation.
The STM symbol was specifically designed for the
celebration of the Silver Anniversary of St. Thomas
More Parish School. This symbol portrays the basic
principles of Catholic education. The cross
represents the central theme of Christianity, while
the quill stands for scholarship. The unfinished circle
emphasizes the never-ending quest for knowledge.

These donor lists were prepared with great care. Despite sincere efforts to avoid
omissions and/or inaccuracies, they can occur. If any are noted, please accept our
sincere apology and advise Kathy Prado (Advancement Director)
of the error so that it can be corrected.
The St. Thomas More Parish Endowment Foundation was established in 1991 with the
mission to provide financial support and insure the long term viability of our school.
Planned gifts are important, needed and allow the school to accomplish great things.
There is no better way to plan for future growth and strength! You may endow STM
with the stroke of a pen. Through a charitable bequest in your will or living trust, you can
ensure that the school will keep its doors open to qualified students whose families
seek a Catholic education. This thoughtful act, which has little or no current financial
impact on you, may result in the largest one-time gift you ever make to St. Thomas More
Parish School. Please be a part of the STM mission, vision, excitement and hope!
Contact Kathy Prado (kprado@stmorenews.com) for more information
on the St. Thomas More Parish Endowment Foundation.
St. Thomas More Endowment Foundation
In 1991, St. Thomas More Parish took an important step to insure the future of its
parish school by forming the St. Thomas More Endowment Foundation. This fund,
created by Msgr. Thomas Donovan and others, was formed for the sole purpose
of providing financial support to the parish school. The Endowment Fund is
managed by a Board of Directors, which consists of the Pastor, the Financial
Director of the Parish, the School Board President, and three at-large members.
The Board is responsible for managing the investment of the principle in the fund,
as well as directing distributions for the benefit of the school.
Contributions from fundraisers (such as Oktoberfest and private donations,
including planned estate giving), along with returns on investment, have allowed the
balance in the fund to grow to over $1 million. This year the Endowment Board
authorized a distribution of $60,000 directly to the 2018-2019 School Budget.
