"The things that we pray for, Lord, give us the grace to labor for."
~Sir Thomas More

Envision More

St. Thomas More Catholic High School kicked off the $12 million capital campaign in August of 2018. Based on the school's strategic plan and a comprehensive feasibility study, the Envision More Capital Campaign is seeking gifts and contributions for an academic building (completed 2017), a chapel (completed January 2022), athletic/fitness center and a creative arts and community center.

On October 28, 2021, St. Thomas More launched Envision More 3.0 - Our Lady of Lourdes Cougar Athletic Center.

Campaign History

In the Fall 2017, the St. Thomas More Community was given an opportunity to discover and provide input through participation in the Feasibility Study listening sessions and interviews. Attendees were asked to offer feedback on the strategic and master site plans designed to expand opportunities and sustain our mission.

Through these listening sessions and interviews the following findings and conclusions were identified:

  • The image and reputation of St. Thomas More is one of academic excellence, strong Catholic identity and ongoing vitality and growth.
  • The response to the master site plan proposal was positive with 98% of the respondents giving the plan a rate of 10 (being the highest possible rating).
  • With an estimated cost of the Master Site Plan Proposal at $12,000,000, this represents the largest modern expansion effort in the history of St. Thomas More since its inception in 1982.
  • The financial commitment to the campaign is strong.

At the final Steering Committee Meeting, upon being presented with the preliminary results of the Feasibility Study, the Steering Committee voted unanimously to recommend the launch of a Capital Campaign. This recommendation was made to and approved by the St. Thomas More Advisory Council.
