About the High School of St. Thomas More

The High School of St. Thomas More in Champaign, IL is seeking its first President beginning in July 2025. The High School of Saint Thomas More was the vision of parents who desired authentic Catholic education for their children beyond 8th grade. Opened in 2000 with 73 students, today the school has grown to over 200 students enrolled. The school remains steadfast to its commitment to strong academics, with honors, AP, and Dual Credit courses. The school also has a working farm on campus which is farmed by local families.

The High School of Saint Thomas More exists to assist parents in forming students spiritually, morally, intellectually and physically in a Christ-centered atmosphere of love, respect and reverence consistent with the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, sending them forth to fulfill their baptismal call as His disciples in the world. The class of 2025 is a testament to the school’s excellent formation, both academically and spiritually, with graduates matriculating to a number of selective institutions including the University of Notre Dame, U.S. Naval Academy, and the seminary.
