At St. Thomas children receive an academically challenging faith based education. It is co-ed with 2 classes/grade (pre-K - 8th) The St. Thomas Community encourages parental involvement in helping the children meet their academic and religious goals. The School offers after school enrichment in creative writing, drama, chess, choir, etc. Other Extracurricular activities: Scouting, Basketball, Missoula Children's Theater & Youth Group. Graduates are very well prepared and attend Fairfield Prepatory (Fairfield), Lauralton Academy (Milford), St. Joseph (Trumbull), Notre Dame (Fairfield), Sacred Heart Academy Greenwich), Hopkins School (New Haven), and Fairfield High School. The St. Thoams Community has just finished a significant capital campaign raising over 3 million dollars for the building of their beautiful parish center which has several state of the art classrooms for Science, Music and Religious education. The building also holds a beautiful Gymnamsium W/ Stage Area & a new cafeteria is currently Under Construction.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
