Our college preparatory program provides the necessary academic training for our graduates to succeed at the next level. What makes St. Thomas More unique is our approach. We provide an environment of structure, learning and trust.
Our students are met with a challenging curriculum and are required to work hard, but they are not expected to do it alone. From the moment they step on campus, they are provided with small classes, individual attention, a devoted faculty and a strong support system. They discover the importance of asking questions and seeking guidance in order to achieve success.
Our students learn better note-taking skills and improved studying techniques, and our teachers instill in them sound work habits through extra help and evening study hall. The requisite course load, along with structure and time management training, prepares students for what awaits them in college. St. Thomas More School's talented faculty members are committed to the achievement of their students and motivate each of them to reach their greatest potential.

An intensive year of growth in motivation, academic aptitude and discipline study skills.
The Postgraduate Program at the St. Thomas More School is for high school graduates who would benefit from an extra year of personal and academic development before entering college. These are capable students who recognize the need to improve their academic aptitude, study skills and SAT scores in order to enter the college of their choice and succeed.
