Do you have a child entering school next year? Do you know a family looking for a school? Applications for new students are open at stmbr.org/apply. We have limited availability for qualified candidates. At this time, we have a wait list for 4th and 7th grade in 2026-2027. Please note: Applications are for new students only; current students will reenroll for 2026-2027 beginning January 10. Emails will be sent to parents with reenrollment instructions.
As technology and social media become increasingly part of everyday life, education on how life online can be both helpful and hurtful becomes increasingly important. On March 3 and 4, students, staff, and parents will have the opportunity to attend a live presentation by Protect Young Eyes. They will share age-appropriate information needed to develop a healthy relationship with digital media. More information about time and location to come.
With just two weeks left in 2025, we invite you to prayerfully consider a year-end tax-deductible charitable gift to the St. Thomas More School Annual Fund. To give online, you may go to stmbr.org/annualfund or Venmo @STMBRschool. Your contribution is more than a gift; it is an investment in our students that will have a lasting impact. Thank you for your support!
ATTENTION FIFTH GRADE PARENTS: Students entering 6th grade are required to receive immunizations after turning 11-years-old. These vaccines include: Tdap and Meningococcal. Please make an appointment with your health care provider after your child’s 11th birthday. Official signed/ stamped shot records can be faxed, emailed, or sent in an envelope to school. Unofficial records such as MyChart, personal records etc. are not acceptable records by the Department of Health and Hospital guidelines. Our fax number is 225-275-0376.

If you are not participating in immunizations, please submit a written statement from a physician stating the procedure is contraindicated for medical reasons, or provide a written dissent from a parent or guardian.
