St. Thomas More School in north Spokane is a Catholic K-8 parish school under the Diocese of Spokane, founded in 1962. The school enrolls roughly 245 students with a relatively high student-teacher ratio of about 20:1 — larger classes than most Seattle-area Catholic K-8s but typical of Spokane parish schools.
In Spokane's Catholic K-8 landscape, the peer set is All Saints Catholic School (the only K-8 in central Spokane), Cataldo Catholic (the largest Spokane Catholic K-8), St. Aloysius Gonzaga (the Jesuit-influenced K-8 near the Gonzaga campus), and Assumption School (north Spokane, K-8). Of these, St. Thomas More sits in the middle by enrollment and has a more traditional academic emphasis than the Jesuit-influenced St. Aloysius. Most graduates feed into Gonzaga Preparatory School (the Catholic Jesuit co-ed high school) or Saint George's School (the secular K-12 independent) for upper grades.
The academic program runs Spanish K-8, a Catholic STEM curriculum (C+STEM), and the standard parish-school mix of religion, liberal arts, and sacramental preparation. The school's stated mission frames the work as forming students who "know, love, and serve God," and athletic participation is through the local Catholic Youth Organization league.
