St. Thomas More Parish School, part of the Archdiocese of Denver, opened its doors in 1994, and is focused on traditional Catholic teachings. The school’s mission is to prepare students between preschool and eighth grade to serve the Church and community as lifelong Catholics. Spiritual well-being and religious growth are a major part of daily instruction. Aside from spiritual studies, students at St. Thomas More Parish are provided with opportunities to participate in other activities such as sports, arts, community services, social interactions and extracurricular academics. Extracurricular opportunities provide artistic students with an avenue for sharing and developing creative talents. Students also have the option to join in activities, including chess, student council and the school's yearbook. The school organizes their classrooms by separating students into two classes per grade, averaging 25 students per class in a school of roughly 300 students.

St.a Thomas More was wonderful 7 years ago when we started. The new administration has failed to lead and it has gone downhill in the past 2 years, this year especially. We felt the need to leave and go to a more nurturing and caring school. There is very little that is Catholic about this school besides their religion classes.

The school has a bullying problem and the teachers do nothing to stop it. Some of the newer teachers should not be teaching children especially at this age because they don't have any heart. They ministration backs up its teachers even when they are at fault.

While the test scores and merits speak for themselves, there are also...

But equally important to us, they have incredible support. When our family experienced some unexpected hardship that flipped...
