Open House ~ Prospective Preschool and Elementary Students
We invite you to visit the St. Thomas community and to see how we can work with you in preparing your child to live a life of excellence. Come meet our veteran teachers, visit our classrooms, see how a small student/teacher ratio benefits our students, and hear about all the programs we offer. Please feel free to stop by for one of our scheduled tours. Our Open House Tours have concluded for the spring. However, we invite you to schedule a personal tour with one of our staff members. Generally, these tours are conducted by the Head of School, Mr. Greg Hutchinson. Please contact the school office at 494-3509 for more information.
You will discover a wonderful community where our faculty and staff are more than teachers. They are role models and partners who approach their critical role in our students' lives with openness, understanding, passion, and compassion. Our students are challenged academically, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Beyond academics, they learn honesty, integrity, respect, compassion and the power of giving.
Completing the Application Process can lead to one of the most worthwhile experiences of your life. Please know our Admissions Staff is available to help you throughout the process. Families are welcome to apply for admission at any time. However, deadlines and space availability do vary by grade, so we encourage you to complete your admissions packet as soon as possible.
