Saint Thomas More Academy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
St. Thomas More Academy (STMA) is a private, co-educational, college preparatory high school operated by Catholic laymen. It is operated independent of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Raleigh. It serves students and their families in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. The goal of STMA is to build good Christian leaders that will be a beacon to all who encounter them as stated in its mission statement. STMA seeks to restore Catholic education through educational and religious formation in its youth.
The school was founded in 2002 to meet the growing needs of North Raleigh Catholics. Some of these families approached Bishop Francis Joseph Gossman about starting and gaining approval for this independent school to operate. Since that the time the school has grown and opens a new campus August 2007.
STMA was voted one of the 50 Best Catholic High Schools in 2006 by the Catholic High School Honor Roll.
