St. Thomas More is more than a school! It is a community of families who care for each other and for their children. The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) brings this community together in family-oriented events, as well as supporting the efforts of teachers and school staff to make St. Thomas More School an enriching environment for the students.
The success of the PTO depends on each family contributing their time and their skills to support our students and our school. It is this involvement that allows the school to provide an excellent education while keeping tuition rates down.
PTO Events include Newcomer Buddy Program, Back-to-School Dance, Grandparents' Day, Field Day, Used Uniform Sale, and so much more!
The STM Parent-Teacher Organization meets the 1st Tuesday of each month beginning at 6:15 p.m. If you are interested in attending, please feel free to contact the PTO President via email: [email protected]
Please consider being a part of PTO!

Sarah Martin, President
Hi There! My name is Sarah Martin and I'm excited to be serving as PTO president for the 24/25 school year! I’m wife to Jonny (15 years) and mom to Sophie (8th grade) and Teddy (6th grade). We’ve been at STM for 9 years, in which I have served as Room parent, secretary and President Elect. I’m looking forward to an incredible year at STM and to supporting our parent/teacher community as we soar through 24/25!
Howdy! My name is Hilary Barelas Sullivan (STM Alum, Class of '93). My husband John and I have two children at STM, Joshua (5th grade) and Gabriella (Kinder), plus 3 grown and launched kids. John is a carpenter and I'm a nurse at MD Anderson, but more importantly at this point in life, we're active in Westbury Little Leaugue and STM's Cub Scout Pack 99. In past years, I've served as Room Parent and Secretary. Looking forward to being y'all's At-Large representative again this year.
Laura Fernandez, Intermediate At-Large
