And it's up!





Our overflow tent is going up! Thanks again Herriott's and generous donors!




SENIORS: You will have a chance to paint a parking spot for your senior year! We are working out the details and they will be forthcoming. Stay tuned!

Through the great generosity of Herriott's and some of our STM Families, we have been able to secure a tent for usage at lunches and for classes for this semester. We are so grateful!
If you would like to help cover the cost of the tent or help purchasing some more picnic tables, please feel free to donate here: https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/HighSchoolofStThomasMoreofCha/donate.html. Thank you so much!

Just a normal passing period...


Big night for some of our female athletes last night! Both golf and tennis walked away with wins!! Nice work, ladies!!

Happy 20th anniversary of the first day of classes! It was twenty years ago today that STM opened its doors to welcome students for the first time. What a milestone! Here's to many more first days of school!


Here's the most recent Diocesan Isolation Protocol for exposure to COVID-19. It continues to be updated as more information becomes available. https://5il.co/k2w6

Happy first Friday of school, Sabers! Congratulations to our students, staff, and parents for their hard work and dedication in making it through our first full week of instruction. We here at STM would also like to wish you a blessed feast day of Pope. St. Pius X! He and his papacy are a special gift to our Church, and to our very school, as we have a relic of his in our chapel, so know that when you are here, you can pray in his midst(!). He was especially devoted to the Holy Eucharist, and encouraged frequent reception of Our Lord at Mass, even insisting that children receive their First Holy Communion as soon as they reach the age of reason. Pope St. Pius X came from an impoverished upbringing, and throughout his life he maintained a zeal in caring for and affirming the dignity of the poor. So, let's ask for the specific intercession of this saintly friend in a special way today as we give thanks to God for his holy witness, and may we strive to see one another through God's loving and merciful gaze.

Good afternoon, Sabers! This is just a friendly reminder that if you have not done so already, your 2019-2020 yearbook may be picked up at the school's front office. If you have any questions regarding yearbooks, you may contact me, Miss Lyons, at elyons@hs-stm.org. Thank you!

Class outside? Yes, please!



All students need to be in Mass Attire to have their picture taken. These pictures will be for the school ID card. Seniors, this is the picture that will be part of the Class of 2021 class composite to be hung in the halls of STM. Picture order forms are to be given to the photographer, not to the school office. Orders may be placed on line after today. Details for online ordering will be given at a later time.

Good evening, Sabers!
Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow, August 20, is school picture day. A couple of things to note: all students are to wear Mass attire. In-person students will be called down in alphabetical order during the morning class periods. Virtual Academy students should arrive at 8:00 a.m. to have their pictures taken first. These pictures will be used for the school ID card. Additionally, seniors, this is the picture that will be part of the Class of 2021 composite image that will be displayed in the halls of STM.
Picture order forms will be available for pickup tomorrow, but are to be given to the photographer, not to the school office. Orders may also be placed online after tomorrow. Details for online ordering will be given at a later time.
Thank you and have a great night! St. Thomas More, pray for us!

Mass looks different this year, but the same Jesus! The Family of St. Kateri has Mass today.
