National Blue Ribbon of Excellence Award We are excited to announce we have received the 2020 National Blue Ribbon of Excellence award, the highest award the U.S. Department of Education can bestow upon a school. This is the fourth National Blue Ribbon award for St. Thomas More Catholic High School and the first in more than 20 years. The school was previously honored in 1987, 1993 and 1998. St. Thomas More was the only Acadiana honoree to previously win a National Blue Ribbon award, according to U.S. Department of Education records. Read more

With a Grateful Heart The faculty, staff and students would like to thank our Parent Teacher Club (PTC) for the wonderful treats we've received since the start of school. All our current parents are members of the PTC and are represented by our PTC Board. Over the last six weeks, the PTC Board and parent volunteers have provided lunch and breakfast to our teachers, they have stuffed over 1,000 bags of popcorn for our students, and they work tirelessly in Cougar Closet selling Cougar Gear and fulfilling pre-orders. We are grateful to the PTC Board and all of our parents for your constant love and support.
