St. Thomas More School (Connecticut)
The St. Thomas More School in Oakdale, Connecticut is a school that allows your children to grow in a Catholic environment that is not anything like the little parochial school near your house. Local Catholic schools cannot offer the services and education that the St. Thomas More School can offer, and the school ranks among the most prestigious private schools in all of New England. You want your child to get into the best college possible, but you do not want to give up your Catholic values. You can hold on to your values when you send your child to school, and the boarding environment will be totally safe for your kids. The St. Thomas More School still participates in sports, and there are many clubs on campus that are going to help kids remain occupied during the day. The rigor that kids are put under at the school gets them ready to go to any college, and that rigor is something that the kids will want for their own children in the future. This is the best way for kids to get a great education, and it is a safe place for your family values when you send your kids to boarding school.
