School Logo

The prominent cross at the center of our logo represents our Catholic faith, which is both our inspiration and the primary focus for teaching and learning at St. Thomas More. The cross is centered in a stylized dove which represents our call to be peacemakers in the world.

Blue is the color of sea and sky and has long been a symbol of life. It is also traditionally associated with Mary, the Blessed Mother and represents peace, piety and sincerity.

The earth symbol reflects the global community we live and our emphasis on providing students with educational experiences that involve intercultural awareness, communication and understanding within our global community.

Welcome

St. Thomas More is a vibrant school that emphasizes academic excellence and student achievement in an environment infused with the core values of Edmonton Catholic Schools: Dignity and Respect, Honesty, Loyalty, Fairness and Personal and Communal Growth. We offer two district focus programs: the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (we are a fully accredited IB World School) and Sports Academies in soccer, hockey and baseball. The IB program focuses on rigorous academics with an emphasis on intercultural awareness and responsible citizenship. The Sports Academies are designed to challenge and inspire each participant and help them to develop the physical and mental skills they need to excel in their chosen sport. At St. Thomas More, we celebrate the uniqueness of each student and we challenge them to live our motto, "Seek the Excellence Within."

"Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities - that's training or instruction - but is rather making visible what is hidden as a seed."
—St. Thomas More
